There are 77 symlinks in the kernel by my count. Perhaps most
interesting are these:

include/dt-bindings/clock/qcom,dispcc-sm8150.h
include/dt-bindings/clock/qcom,dispcc-sm8350.h
include/dt-bindings/clock/qcom,sm8650-dispcc.h
include/dt-bindings/input/linux-event-codes.h

I'm not sure if there are further criteria we need to satisfy.
