Hi Krzysztof,

Sorry, I don't know it is not appropriate to notify driver that the
clock should be ketp enabled after boot.

The original idea is that enabling this clock in the machine driver,
but a property to inform machine driver is also required when the
machine driver is shared by different codec combination. And it's
easier to handle set_rate and set_parent in etdm dai driver, so I put
the property here.

Do you mean if the clock consumer(audio codec or external DSP) requries
the clock, the consumer should enable the clock by itself?

Thanks,
Trevor
