88PM800 family of device supports output of 32KHz clock (low jitter)
on CLK32K2/3 pin which can be supplied to other peripherals on the board.

This patch adds the devicetree binding to enable this feature.

I am not sure if I understand it correctly. The hardware always has such
clocks and you only want to enable/disable it in DT? Any reasons why
these should not be enabled always?


Small amount of Power savings...
Although currently I do not have power numbers to justify this.

As per spec, (it only talks about power consumption in power down state)

Power-down State => VSYS > 2.8   => 4.5 μA
                    CLK32K2 = 0  => 18 μW

Enabling it in DT does not look like a job for DT. Maybe you there
should be just a clock driver (clock provider)?


It's init time (and one time) settings, wouldn't clock-provider
be overkill for this?


Thanks,
Vaibhav
