This patch actually is to fix the clock parent switch flow of A53, previous flow is incorrect,
the reason why it works is the IMX8MN_CLK_A53_CORE is marked as CRITICAL,
but if with correct flow of parent switch, the "arm" as CLK_IS_CRITICAL flag is enough and
IMX8MN_CLK_A53_CORE will be enabled because it is "arm" clk's parent.

The A53 clock parent switch should be put after the "arm" clk creation, then no need to have
CLK_IS_CRITICAL flag for IMX8MN_CLK_A53_CORE, and its usecount will be 1 as expected.
Previous implementation will has use count equal 2 which is incorrect.
