The clocks are specified in the (I2C slave device) DT node which corresponds
to the device as a whole and to which binds the MFD driver.  AFAICT those
clocks are only needed by the CODEC sub-driver but in general such clocks
could be used to provide device's system clock used by other functionalities 
than audio.  We are doing something similar for other MFD drivers already
and I would rather stick to one pattern. IMHO it's clearer to see what
device the clocks belong to that way.
