Arg. Forgot about that. k210 is rv64 only and while the clk driver could still
compile test with rv32 (or any arch), that driver provides the
k210_clk_early_init() function which is called very early in the boot process
from k210_soc_early_init(), which is an SOC_EARLY_INIT_DECLARE() call. The
problem may be there. Probably should be disabled for rv32 if no SoC need that
sort of early init call.
