If there is going to be new version:
A nit, subject: drop second/last, redundant "documentation". The
"dt-bindings" prefix is already stating that these are bindings in
documentation.

Names matching the module name are not really helpful, so drop it,
unless any existing user needs it.

I am ok with dropping this. If you meant with an existing user
something that is already mainlined in the kernel tree then I would
say there is no need for this 'clock-names'. I don't know about other
places since these SoCs are pretty old and almost with nothing
documented. I am doing the effort of trying to document all the stuff
before porting some openWRT device tree files to the kernel (this
timer driver is already included in 'arch/mips/ralink' so I am
documenting already in-tree things). So I guess I should send v2
removing this?

Thanks,
