Hi Daniel

Normally you don't put registers values into device tree. But in this
case, i don't see a better alternative.

Please add a range check. Values > 01101 are reserved.

This could be a problem. If i'm reading the datasheet correctly,
clearing this bit will override the strapping. A hardware engineer
might of included a resistor to disable the clock output, saving some
power. And here you unconditionally turn it back on again. Since
ti,clk-output-sel is optional, i would prefer that you don't touch
this register if the property is not present.
