+description: |
+  Nuvoton Arbel BMC NPCM8XX contains an integrated clock controller, which
+  generates and supplies clocks to all modules within the BMC.
+
+properties:
+  compatible:
+    enum:
+      - nuvoton,npcm845-clk
+
+  reg:
+    maxItems: 1
+
+  clocks:
+    items:
+      - description: 25M reference clock
+      - description: CPU reference clock
+      - description: MC reference clock
+
+  clock-names:
+    items:
+      - const: refclk
+      - const: sysbypck
+      - const: mcbypck
+
I asked what is the suffix about and you replied "ck"... ok, so let's
make clear. This should be:

    items:
      - const: ref
      - const: sysbyp
      - const: mcbyp

or something similar, without the same suffix all over.
The clock names are the same clock name in our spec, this why we
prefer to leave the clock names as is.
The naming with useless suffixes does not help. If your spec had
"refclk_really_clock_this_is_a_clock" you also would insist on that? It
does not make sense.
Sorry but I don't understand why the clock name cause an issue, we
prefer it will be the same as in our spec-clock diagram
BTW, the same naming found in NPCM7XX
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.19-rc1/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/clock/nuvoton,npcm750-clk.txt#L36
Because the names should not have irrelevant information.
interrupt-names should have "txirq". dma-names should not have "txdma".
clock-names should not have "refclock" or "refclk" because it is
irrelevant duplication. These are bindings, not DTS, so whatever you
have in your spec matters less. DTS is the representation of hardware
and there you can name clocks closer to the spec so it is easier for
you, if that's your preference.

And if your spec has "refclk_really_clock_this_is_a_clock" you still
should not use it.

Anyway, you should discuss it last time when I pointed it out. Instead
my comments were ignored and you decided to send v2. That's not how
discussion works and it will not bring you closer to your point.


Best regards,
Krzysztof
