A lot of this is details of the system integration for this SoC, not
actual errors.
This particular clock patch yes, but the other ASoC dt doc update is fixing
bindings which haven't progressed in lockstep with the driver code. Presumably
this happened during the review process when they were changed to being st,
prefixed in the driver, but the doc wasn't also updated.
The bits where you are correcting the names of the properties are not
details of the system integration and are therefore fine.  The bits
where you're documenting the particular clocking arrangements for the
SoC you happen to be using less so.

it's fairly routine
to have to explain to people that just because some old driver did
something that doesn't mean it's something we want in new drivers.
I'm sure it is. Although I fail to see why leaving the documentation with
mistakes in is helpful to anybody.
Fixing actual mistakes is fine.
