The clock {} subnode seems like it is describing an always-on clock
generated by the PMIC. This should rather be modeled by consumer of
the clock taking phandle to the RTC node itself, since it already
does have clock-cells and all. Since there are no users of the clock
subnode in tree anyway, mark it as deprecated to avoid proliferation
of this approach.

I just noticed this by accident. Basically everything in the patch
description is wrong:

1. There is a in-tree user: arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6dl-qmx6.dtsi

Sorry, I missed this one.

2. The PMIC has nothing to do with this

In [3] the commit message claims the PMIC supplies 32kHz clock to i.MX6 CKIL , which per IMX6DQRM rev.6 Table 18-3 row SNVS indirectly supplies SNVS RTC . This reminded me of commit:

9509593f327ac ("arm64: dts: imx8mm: Model PMIC to SNVS RTC clock path on Data Modul i.MX8M Mini eDM SBC")

which solves exactly the same problem, system hangs when 32 kHz clock are stopped, except this time on i.MX8MM, clock are generated by PMIC on I2C (notice how the PMIC is referenced directly) and the clock are supplied to the SVNS RTC XTal terminals.

I wonder if this could be reused on the QMX6 board too ?

3. Directly referencing the RTC does not work, since that introduces
    an unsolvable dependency loop on QMX6. This was the solution accepted
