I think I gave you example how these clocks are being enforced, but
let's paste it here one more time:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.19-rc6/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/clock/samsung,exynos7-clock.yaml#L38

If you have always two clocks, you just put here maxItems and skip the
allOf:if:then.

If you have here for some variants one clock, for some two, then define
wide constraints here and narrow them for each variant in allOf:if:then
("else:")

No one speaks about label, I never commented about label, I think...

If you think the property is really generic and every NAND controller
bindings implement it, then feel free to include them there, in a
separate patch. It sounds sensible, but I did not check other bindings.
