Got it. So from my research we would need to use CLK_OF_DECLARE_DRIVER for:
    mainpll (pll)

    syspll4_d16 (div)

    f10m_ref_sel (mux)

    infra_apxgpt_pd (gate)

Anyway, as a quick fix we can delete the device node. I'll reword you commit
message and I'll also reword commit message for 1/3

In the future please try to not put links into the commit message but explain
what is happening.

Regards,
Matthias
