cmn-reference-clock is for selecting the reference clock source for the
whole Ethernet block, which is just the standalone configure register.
however the clock provider has the logical register distribution, such
as for one clock tree, there is RCG, DIVIDER and branch registers in
the qcom soc chip.

The clock consumer defines the clock IDs of device tree to reference the
clocks provided by the clock controller, and these clock IDs are
provided by the header file of clock provider.

like this,
clocks = <&gcc GCC_MDIO_AHB_CLK>, 

          <&gcc GCC_UNIPHY0_AHB_CLK>, 

          <&gcc GCC_UNIPHY1_AHB_CLK>, 

          <&gcc GCC_UNIPHY0_SYS_CLK>, 

          <&gcc GCC_UNIPHY1_SYS_CLK>;

gcc is the device node of clock provider, and GCC_MDIO_AHB_CLK is the 
clock ID.

Ok, will update this in the next patch set, thanks for the comments.
