I'm not sure if we should name the first clock "xtal" as on Meson8b
clk81 is used as input, see [0].
maybe "refclk" or "clkin" (the latter is already used in other meson
drivers, see sd_emmc_*, saradc, ethmac, and so on)

apart from that the whole series is a good thing (if the other small
nits - for example from Rob - are fixed)!
