Thanks for making your point bit clear.

Which is the case at least I see on Keystone. And hence the patch from
Grygorii works. I also noticed your proposal for wider platform to
enforce above behavior which seems to be a good idea.

I understand. In summary, whichever patch you pick(yours) or Grygorii's,
its completely safe to remove the clock handling from Keystone USB driver.
