It was unclear that the pclk_hdmi is the child of pclk_vo by looking at
the clk driver's code, thank you!

Won't be better if the implicit clk dependency would be handled
internally by the RK clk driver? For example, by making the common gate
shared/refcounted. Have you considered this variant? Then we won't need
to change the DT bindings.
