The EMC clock needs some extra information for changing its rate.

This seems to be a quite liberal use of unit addresses (same in the next
patch) - is this allowed by DT?

Well, it's not that different from using the register address. I think
it helps with readability more than an arbitrary index.

At first it seems confusing to see a top-level node without a compatible
property, until you realize it has already been defined before.

In patch 05, you put "Example board file:" above a similar node, which is
enough to lift that ambiguity - could you do the same here?

Oh, actually it was already in the file. I took this idea from here
for patch 05.

My bad, missed it!
