There's no new clock here. We are using the ref_clk for SOF and ITP
counter for this feature. Also, clocks are optional on non-DT platforms.
To use the clock API, then we need to update the driver to allow some
optional clock such as "ref" clock for non-DT platforms. Do you want to
do it like this?
