For more readability and maintenance, all the clock related DT
nodes for mt7622 SoC are grouped into a separate DT file. And
currently mt7622-clock.dtsi only includes the fixed clock for
uart0 and the oscillator which would be extended after MT7622
clock driver is introduced.


We've not done this for any other Mediatek SoC at the moment.
Do you expect the m7622 to have more clock nodes then for example mt7623?
Apart from that this clock nodes are just dummy clocks which should disappear as soon as the clock driver got merged.
Last point, you break bisectability if add a clock node in a patch *after* the consumer was added.

So please add the clock nodes to the dtsi as we did up to now. If in the future we see that mt7622 has a whole bunch of clock nodes, we can still abstract them in an external dtsi file.

Thanks,
Matthias
