Ah, right, this deserves commentary: Since this is a reverse-engineered
driver/platform support, we give up on knowing the clock tree exactly. Instead
we model the clock input to the Numerically Controlled Oscillator (‘nco’ node
below) with this fabulated fixed clock reference.

I guess eventually the clock tree is rooted off the SoC, and there’s
nothing guaranteeing the same reference clock to the NCO across machines (being
function of the board wiring and the proprietary firmware). In the end I would
argue for keeping the ‘clock-ref’ here in ’soc' but have the clock-frequency
defined by board.  Sounds reasonable?

OK
