AFAICS, there are two clocks as described in the documentation for the 
s32g2 page 843, section 23.7.3 Timer modules.

The module and the register clock are fed by the XBAR_DIV3_CLK which is 
an system clock always-on.

page 1994, 40.5.4 Clocking, the documentation says: "This module has no 
clocking considerations."

 From my understanding, we should not describe the XBAR_DIV3_CLK as it 
is a system clock.
