Would you rely on assigned-clock-rates or what? There's no guarantee it'll
actually be the desired frequency. That said, few (or no) drivers checks
what they get when they set the frequency.

If there's a need to support no port nodes, then say "one or none" or such.
Usually that's useful on the receiver side only though.

I'd only put clock-lanes if the lane ordering is configurable.
