The clock controller on Meson8, Meson8b and Meson8m2 is very similar
based on the code from the Amlogic GPL kernel sources. Add separate
compatibles for each SoC to make sure that we can easily implement
all the small differences for each SoC later on.

In general the Meson8 and Meson8m2 seem to be almost identical as they
even share the same mach-meson8 directory in Amlogic's GPL kernel
sources.
The main clocks on Meson8, Meson8b and Meson8m2 are very similar,
because they are all using the same PLL values, 90% of the clock gates
are the same (the actual diffstat of the mach-meson8/clock.c and
mach-meson8b/clock.c files is around 30 to 40 lines, when excluding
all commented out code).
The difference between the Meson8 and Meson8b clock gates seem to be:
- Meson8 has AIU_PCLK, HDMI_RX, VCLK2_ENCT, VCLK2_ENCL, UART3,
? CSI_DIG_CLKIN gates which don't seem to be available on Meson8b
- the gate on Meson8 for bit 7 seems to be named "_1200XXX" instead
? of "PERIPHS_TOP" (on Meson8b)
- Meson8b has a SANA gate which doesn't seem to exist on Meson8 (or
? on Meson8 the same bit is used by the UART3 gate in Amlogic's GPL
? kernel sources)
None of these gates is added for now, since it's unclear whether these
definitions are actually correct (the VCLK2_ENCT gate for example is
defined, but only used in some commented block).

The main difference between all three SoCs seem to be the video (VPU)
clocks. Apart from different supported clock rates (according to vpu.c
in mach-meson8 and mach-meson8b from Amlogic's GPL kernel sources) the
most notable difference is that Meson8m2 has a GP_PLL clock and a mux
(probably the same as on the Meson GX SoCs) to support glitch-free
(clock rate) switching.
None of these VPU clocks are not supported by our mainline meson8b
clock driver yet though.

I think you should split the binding documentation and clk changes into
separate
patches.

The change being more platform than clock related, I'd prefer if Kevin or
Carlo
ack it before we apply it.

Applied to next/drivers with Kevin and Rob's Acks.
