So the deferred clock makes the whole platform hang because the timer
needs it. Without a clocksource, the delay loop cannot be calibrated, so
it hangs there.

Ok. So can the certain clks that are required to get the timer
going be put into CLK_OF_DECLARE_DRIVER() and then have a regular
platform driver for the rest of the clks that aren't required for
early boot? We've been doing this sort of hybrid design lately,
so hopefully that works here too.

Sure I will give it a spin!

Is there a best-in-class driver doing this I can use as inspiration?

Great. I suppose drivers/clk/nxp/clk-lpc18xx-creg.c or
drivers/clk/axis/clk-artpec6.c would be good examples.
