> On Raspberry Pi 3B, the VEC clock is used by the VideoCore firmware
> display driver, which remains active until the vc4 driver loads and
> sends NOTIFY_DISPLAY_DONE. If this clock is disabled during boot, a bus
> lockup happens and the firmware becomes unresponsive, causing a complete
> system lockup.
>
> Mark the VEC clock with CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED so it survives the unused
> clock disablement and remains available until the vc4 driver takes over
> display management.
