Ok, will add a define of maxItems.

According to the hardware topology, any clocks are not belonged to
syscon, like described here, this phandle is only used to get virtual
map address for clocks which have the same phsical address base with
one syscon.

In the past, clocks were defined like below:
    apahb_gate: apahb-gate {
      compatible = "sprd,sc9863a-apahb-gate";
      reg = <0 0x20e00000 0 0x1000>;
      #clock-cells = <1>;
    };

And there was also a syscon which had the same base address like below:
ap_ahb_regs: syscon@...00000 {
compatible = "sprd,sc9863a-glbregs", "syscon";
reg = <0 0x20e00000 0 0x4000>;
};

To avoid one phsical address was remapped more than one time, I think
using the mapped address by syscon directly would be better.
Any other suggestions are very appreciated.

Thanks,
Chunyan
