Driver code:

+       ret = of_property_read_u32(dev->of_node, "clock-frequency", &xclk_freq);+       if (ret) {
+               dev_err(dev, "Could not get xclk frequency\n");
+               return ret;
+       }
+
+       /* external clock must be 37.125 MHz */
+       if (xclk_freq != 37125000) {
+               dev_err(dev, "External clock frequency %u is not supported\n",
+                       xclk_freq);
+               return -EINVAL;
+       }

So, only 37125000 is supported - is that not worth mentioning in this
description?  Is this a hard requirement of the sensor?  If so, why
does it need to be mentioned in the DT binding?
