In our point of view the .clink is not useless with EABI, it is still applicable for interrupt service routines.
Is this correct?

You are correct. In EABI builds, interrupts and the interrupt vector table which refers to them is kept in the link, and this occurs by default. If you use #pragma CLINK on the interrupt, this behavior is disabled, and the interrupt and related interrupt vector table is subject to conditional removal.
