Yes, exactly (for SSI2) [1]:

	clocks = <&clks IMX6QDL_CLK_SSI2_IPG>,
		 <&clks IMX6QDL_CLK_SSI2>;
	clock-names = "ipg", "baud";

	If possible I do prefer a solution, which uses only DTS.
	
Side question - how to refer to baud clock from [1]?

I will give a shoot the option with adding the ipg clock.

Thanks for help.
