I will rework and wait for your other comments before sending a new

platforms:

I will do across all the dtsi, don't bother repeating yourself :)

You can actually switch CPU clk from CPU pll to smclk. I'm not sure this
is completely useful yet though, probably for suspend ?

Also, while I'm not sure this is a good reason, other clocks are derived
from CPU pll and have another divider.
