Clocks of SCP_SYS is a workaround in our previous internal
implementation. It should be replaced with new mtk-scpsys driver which
implemented in pm_domain framework because they are used to power on/off
subsystem domains.

I had discussed with Sascha, and he said it not worth the overhead of
CCF for clocks that are not shared by different units. As I know AUDIO
and MFG clocks are only used by their own drivers. So I don't include
them in this patch.


Best regards,

James
