So how are we continuing here?
The reason why I am asking is that switching downstream to use the clock
driver result in the lockups also when using i2s/pcm.

I have seen that CLK_IS_CRITICAL has made it into the clk-next tree.
Should we use that for plls (or pll_dividers) that are running?

Something like this:

At least for downstream this does work and gives the following messages:
