Hi Angelo,

Thanks for your review.

May I add "minItems: 1" to clocks property?

Without this, dt_binding_check will fail because we don't have enough
clocks in the example. (Both MT8195 and MT8186 don't have 30 PLLs)

As you know, mediatek,hopping-ssc-percents property is used to specify
ssc rate for matching clocks.

If we have to add maxItems, I think we should specify the same value
as clocks property. Is my understanding wrong?


Thanks!
