Re: [PATCH V2 2/3] dt-bindings: net: Fix Tegra234 MGBE PTP clock

The PTP clock for the Tegra234 MGBE device is incorrectly named
'ptp-ref' and should be 'ptp_ref'. This is causing the following
warning to be observed on Tegra234 platforms that use this device:

 ERR KERN tegra-mgbe 6800000.ethernet eth0: Invalid PTP clock rate
 WARNING KERN tegra-mgbe 6800000.ethernet eth0: PTP init failed

Although this constitutes an ABI breakage in the binding for this
device, PTP support has clearly never worked and so fix this now
so we can correct the device-tree for this device. Note that the
MGBE driver still supports the legacy 'ptp-ref' clock name and so
older/existing device-trees will still work, but given that this
is not the correct name, there is no point to advertise this in the
binding.

The base for the series is generally the latest rc1. A different dependency
should be noted in *this* patch.

If you already ran 'make dt_binding_check' and didn't see the above
error(s), then make sure 'yamllint' is installed and dt-schema is up to
date:

pip3 install dtschema --upgrade

Please check and re-submit after running the above command yourself. Note
that DT_SCHEMA_FILES can be set to your schema file to speed up checking
your schema. However, it must be unset to test all examples with your schema.
