Yes, I've seen Alex's series on adding bus clocks to UART nodes and
could then depend on the series and add the correct UART clocks in
devicetree, then CLK_IS_CRITICAL to uart0_clk and uart0_bus_clk could go
away.

For other places applying CLK_IS_CRITICAL: it should be unnecessary for
cpu_c1_hi_clk, which is only a possible parent of CPU cluster 1's clock.
cci550_clk, cpu_c0_{core,ace,tcm}_clk and cpu_c1_{core,ace}_clk are
clocks for CPU cores. I think there's no good way to describe the
dependency in devicetree for now as we're lacking of a proper CPUfreq
driver, so I'd like to keep them as is (and may add a comment).

If there's a better way to handle these CPU clocks, I'd like to remove
the CLK_IS_CRITICAL flag as well.
