I wonder if it would make more sense to pass an actual clock reference
here. If valid, then reconfigure the period to the value returned by
clk_get_rate(). It would avoid yet another DT binding. If we make the
clock optional, then we won't affect any other platforms. The clock
itself could be a regular fixed clock node.
Thinh Nguyen asked to add a dedicated DT property. He explained that
clk_get_rate() does not work for PCI hosted dwc3. This is the most
complete summary of the discussion:

  https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://lore.kernel.org/r/c797e9cb-cae6-c0b6-5714-169c2ad79d32@synopsys.com__;!!A4F2R9G_pg!Nh6rqp_aOd8XIvqELvDRQe5ooZf13UZKwmn9lWcRgdbyMKpTMzL8HasrB1X2Ojvumo8g$ 
PCI devices can have DT nodes with clock properties too. Or use the 
VID/PID to infer the frequency. Or use 'clock-frequency' property.

It boils down to we have lots of standard properties for clocks and 
clock configuration, so custom properties are a NAK.
Do we have DT node for the PCI device before discovering the device from
PCI bus enumeration? I don't think we can find the clock properties from
its configuration space. For our HAPS devices, we can't use VID/PID to
infer the frequency since our phy and ref clock may change.

Does "clock-frequency" mean ref clock? If so, let's use that?

Thanks,
Thinh
