Why can't this be folded into the second patch? It seems
incorrect to allow it to silently work in patch 2 even though
we've flagged that clk as a requirement and then change that
behavior here.


The idea was keep it separate so that if someone needs to keep earlier behavior (of ignoring the core clock failure), then it would be easier to just revert this commit and still use flag mechanism. Also convenient with git bisect for finding offending commit. I don't mind squashing this into patch 2 if we think that's better.
