So as Mark wrote in his later reply:

"AIUI with the clock API the idiomatic thing is that any optionality is
handled at the point where the clock is acquired - if the clock is
optional you end up with NULL which in the clock API is a dummy clock
and ignored.  The rest of the code then doesn't need to worry about any
of this stuff and the handling can only be in one place."

Combined with there pretty much always actually being an mclk I believe
that this patch from Andy results in a nice cleanup so I'm in favor with
this. And the other cleanups also look sensible to me

I would like to run a small smoke-test with both the series to make
sure nothing regresses (should be fine but better safe then sorry).

Andy I believe that there is going to be a v2 to address a couple
of nitpicks, right ?

Note for testing I would prefer a full v2 series, even if some
patches don't change. And I assume the same applies to Mark for
applying this.

Sending partial series with only changed patches on the v2
send turns things into a puzzle, which is not ideal IMHO.

Hans
