Well, it could also be that the clock is wired to some other clock which
is always on (which I guess is why the driver allows this in the first
place, there's a lot of sloppy code around stuff like that in the tree).

I do agree on this point though, given that the clock is actually
required for useful operation what's happening here is that the schema
is detecting an error in the use of the binding.
