The driver shouldn't update it dynamically, and this makes sure *that*
is enforced since we end up depending on that property.  Hence the
check is sensible (and I even suggested it.)

Too many sub-clauses to make much sense of that statement.

I don't want drivers messing around with this stuff.  This is the /bus/
clock, not a device specific clock.
