In theory that is the case. The clocks should be modeled after the input
clocks of the device (ci13xxx). Every SoC should have them, but on some
SoCs some of them may not be software controllable, so they have to
provide dummy clocks for these.
So when everyting is done correctly in the driver, the calls to clk_get
could be in the core instead of ci13xxx_imx. That said, we do not have
good insights into the SoC, so we do not know exactly which clock inputs
the ci13xx has and where they are connected in the SoCs clock module.
There are some guesses in there.
