My doubt is, what happens if wm8960_configure_clocking is called with
wm8960->clk_id = WM8960_SYSCLK_PLL and we remove the PLL
as suggested.

Is this possible even possible?

Anyhow, I noticed that so far wm8960->clk_id is never set to
WM8960_SYSCLK_PLL :).

So, my proposal is to merge this patch which improves the existing code and deal
with PLL fallback in a separate patch later.

I am afraid of touching things which I don't understand how they work :D.

thanks,
Daniel.
