We've been taking an approach of using CLK_OF_DECLARE() for clks
that must be registered for timers and interrupt controllers (as
these things are done before the device model is initialized),
and struct drivers otherwise. If the DT node has a mix of
timer/interrupt controller clks and other clks then
CLK_OF_DECLARE_DRIVER() can be used and then we can still have a
builtin driver.
