Hmm. I'd prefer to just ditch the notion of "clock-names" in the cases
where it isn't strictly necessary. Just because some vendors don't want
to define an order between their clocks doesn't mean it's a good idea
for everybody to use that model. In this case, just declaring that the
two clocks refs have to be to those two clocks in that order should
be sufficient.

Aren't these names hardcoded per SoC? If so, they can be derived from the
compatible field + output number without having a table in the device tree.

If anything, you might want to enumerate the allowed/expected values, but
actually putting them in a property seems overkill.

If it has a unit addres (@<x>) it needs a reg property with the same base
address.

typo? tegra_car?
