PL022 binding require two clocks to be defined but lpc platform doesn't

Update spi clocks and clocks-names property by adding appropriate clock
reference to make it compliant with bindings.

In fact I'm uncertain if it is the right change, could it happen that
the commit
cc0f6e96c4fd ("spi: dt-bindings: Convert Arm pl022 to json-schema")
sets a wrong
schema pattern?
Good pointm this doesn't quite seem right: it is unlikely that the
same clock
is used for both the SPI bus and the APB bus.
Apparently just one clock is wanted on all observed platforms and
cases, this
is implicitly confirmed by clock handling in the
drivers/spi/spi-pl022.c :
pl022->clk = devm_clk_get(&adev->dev, NULL);
So, I would vote to fix the device tree bindings schema.
Isn't this just using the wrong name? The name of the macro
LPC32XX_CLK_SSP0 might indicate that this is indeed the SPI clock
rather than the APB clock, so we only need to change clock-names
property here and leave it unchanged otherwise.
Yes, the name is wrong, here I'm ready to take the blame:
Fixes: 93898eb775e5 ("arm: dts: lpc32xx: add clock properties to device
nodes")
Noteworthy the commit above presets the same clock name to other PrimeCell
controllers, namely pl110 (LCD), pl080 (DMA), pl175 (EMC) and pl18x (SD),
plus this one pl022 (SSP), and all but SSP and SD are AHB slaves in fact.
On LPC32xx the bus clock source and function clock source for SSP is HCLK.
My guess is that the misnamed "apb_pclk" migrated into the schema from
the lpc32xx.dtsi, so I'd suggest, unless some platform really needs it,
firstly fix the schema by removing "apb_pclk" clock. It will leave just one
clock, so "clock-names" property can be set as optional, and the drop
the property from the lpc32xx.dtsi.
No, "apb_pclk" is part of the common AMBA binding, and is required by
the "arm,primecell" compatible. You won't (usually) find it referenced
in drivers because it's dealt with by amba_get_enable_pclk() via
amba_probe().
Thank you, it explains, why "apb_pclk" is required for all PrimeCell
controllers on the SoC. Nevertheless, in commit 93898eb775e5 it was
misidentified with the sspclk clock, the latter one is the only clock
explicitly utilized by the driver in 2015 and till today. Fixes in dts
files should be preceded by a fix in the driver.
