Agree, now we almost use the simple-card for the CODEC driver, so I 
think we should enable the mclk(i2s-outclk) in the simple-card driver, 
is it ?

I found a subnode property from simple-card document:
- mclk-fs                               : Multiplication factor between 
stream
                                           rate and codec mclk, applied 
only for
                                           the dai-link.
But the property responsible to the factor, not care if the mclk source 
clock is enabled or not. So does the simple-card driver can add support 
to enable/disable mclk ?
