I'm not a big fan of this "dummy_clk".
The 'name' part of the devicetree node is supposed to be generic.
So, perhaps just oscillator@2, and move it down below clk32k:
oscillator@1.

Otherwise:
cpum_ck is a test clock which only available in IC test. It's empty on
MT8173 evaluation or production boards. Should we name this kind of
empty clock as an oscillator? Or is there a better name for it?
When and if it is used, it would be an oscillator of some kind. It is only
"dummy" because it is not currently used.

I am not an expert, but I think these names should be generic, and
"oscillator" is consistent with what is used elsewhere in this file for off
chip clock sources.
