Micfil references IMX8MP_CLK_AUDIOMIX_PDM_IPG, and
IMX8MP_CLK_AUDIOMIX_PDM_ROOT.  I am not convinced the
IMX8MP_CLK_AUDIOMIX_PDM_ROOT exists beyond a #define in an include
directory.  I tried making it use pdm_sel, but it threw an error.  I
am not near my system, so I'm sorry I don't have more details.

In the downstream kernel IMX8MP_CLK_AUDIOMIX_PDM_ROOT was a child of
pdm_sel, but I am not certain as to what the difference between them
was since they appeared to be shared.
