[PATCH RFC 2/3] ASoC: dt-bindings: amlogic,gx-sound-card: document clocks and clock-names

From: Neil Armstrong
Date: Fri Jun 14 2024 - 12:24:34 EST


The sound card design is based on 3 reference PLL frequencies that
are the root of all clock rates calculations.

Today, those 3 frequencies are specified in DT via assigned-clocks,
because they correspond to the basic audio use-case.

It makes no sense to setup clock rates for a sound card without
referencing the clocks for the sound card, mainly because at
some point more complex audio use cases will be supported
and those root rates would need to change.

To solve this situation, let's legitimize the presence of assigned-clocks
in the sound card by documenting those clocks, as it describes a true
dependency of the sound card and paths the way of more complex
audio uses-cases involving those root frequencies.
