No. Drop all clocks related code and make this pure PWM driver, like pwm-sun4i
is. For AC300, AC200 or whatever other device may need clock produced by PWM,
pwm-clock can be used like this:

ac300_pwm_clk: ac300-clk {
	compatible = "pwm-clock";
	#clock-cells = <0>;
	clock-frequency = <24000000>;
	pinctrl-names = "default";
	pinctrl-0 = <&pwm1_pin>;
	pwms = <&pwm 1 42 0>;
};

ac300 {
	...
	clocks = <&ac300_pwm_clk>;
	...
};
