clock-names only makes sense when there are multiple clock phandles in
'clocks' property.  When clock-names is not present, the driver code
calls devm_clk_get() with the second parameter being NULL.

Same as clock-names.

First of all, for vendor specific properties, we should have a vendor
prefix, something like "zte,reset-mask-config".

Secondly, we should really have more comments to explain why this
property is optional, i.e. in which cases it should be present, and in
which cases it can be missing.  Also, the relationship between this
reset and 'resets = <&toprst 35>' should be explained a bit as well.
