On certain Snapdragon processors, the crypto engine clocks are enabled by
default by security firmware.

Then probably we should not require them only on these variants.

the rationale is clear, but here comes a minor problem, older platforms
require clocks, when newer ones do not. When a generic SoC-specific compatible
is introduced, let say "qcom,ipq4019-qce", it itself requires the clocks,
but then newer platforms can not be based on this particular compatible,
otherwise they will require clocks and this comes as invalid.

How to resolve it properly, shall there be another generic SoC-specific
compatible without clocks and NOT based on that "qcom,ipq4019-qce" compatible?

By the way, QCE on SM8150 also shall not need the clocks.
