I am removing the safe src for SDCC, but I am trying to get details from teams as to why this was added, if it would be required I will add back the safe src index again and submit the patch.

These clocks are not enabled by default and going to video or other multimedia cores so we are marking them as critical and need to expose to the kernel. As of now, there is no plan to change these to non-critical.Ok. Can we open code enabling these branches in the driver probe then? Still seems wasteful if nobody uses these. Put another way, either a driver (or other clk controller) should be toggling these gates at runtime or we should enable them once and leave them out of the framework. If the driver approach is taken, then the drivers should be able to turn the clks on and off to save some power.
As of now, no client driver is taking care of toggling these gates at runtime. We want these clocks to be always on and that's why marked them as CRITICAL so that if any user tries to unprepare/disable then it won't happen and framework generates the warning. Once the client drivers will take care of above, then we will submit a cleanup patch.
