That following the example,
BMC is stop in u-boot stage, the eSPI and LPC UART1/2 can still work fine.
But after boot into Linux, the eSPI and SUART1/2 can't work anymore,
it is disappear. That is not consistence between U-boot and kernel.
The reason is the same with AST SoC also have VGA device capability.

And another point of view, clk framework provide CLK_IS_CRITICAL flag
to support this, instead add more driver for this.
