OK, so I understand you want to firmware/bootloader/... to write the
value into that register instead, so this all works in non-secure mode
(which sounds like a fine objection), but ...

... I'm not sure how the comment about adding a clock to the DT binding
is related to that. Sorry for not following the plot!
