Without CONFIG_CPUFREQ_DT the ccm_ipc_handle won't be defined and build
will break.

But is there a good reason for ifdef? In general clock function are
compiled even if no driver is calling them.

The code inside the ifdef would look better in a separate
imx_clk_atf_set_rate function. Maybe even separate clk_ops?
