No other (real) clocks have the cpu clock as their parent; instead they are
children of aclk. Move the clint clock under aclk to match them.

Looks good, but representing this clock is in fact useless, at least in Linux,
since the clint driver does not use it directly and derives its rate from
riscv_timebase which is set from the timebase-frequency DT property.

Not sure how u-boot handles that though. Since your code allows changing the
PLLs frequency, the timebase-frequency property may end up being buggy if it is
not changed too.

U-Boot uses the clocks property since 47d7e3b5eb ("riscv: Move timer
portions of SiFive CLINT to drivers/timer") :)

Actually, thinking about this some more, the clint DT node should have an
optional clock entry and use that clock rate to set riscv_timebase if the clock
entry is present. riscv_timebase can be set using timebase-frequency DT property
if the clock is not set.

I remember that adding the clock property to Linux DT gave warning with make
dtb_check. Hence I removed it. driver/clocksoure/timer-riscv.c also make the
timebase-frequency DT property mandatory. Time for some more patching on Linux
side I guess :)

This is how it is done in U-Boot. See timer_pre_probe and
timer_timebase_fallback for the mechanism.
