Simple removal of "#include <dt-bindings/clock/amlogic,a1-pll-clkc.h>"
header doesn't work, dt_binding_check make rule is failed:

Error: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/clock/amlogic,a1-clkc.example.dts:28.37-38 syntax error
FATAL ERROR: Unable to parse input tree

It happens, because 'dt_binding_check' generates simple dts example and
tries to compile it:

cat Documentation/devicetree/bindings/clock/amlogic,a1-clkc.example.dts
===

/dts-v1/;
/plugin/; // silence any missing phandle references


/{
    compatible = "foo";
    model = "foo";
    #address-cells = <1>;
    #size-cells = <1>;



    example-0 {
        #address-cells = <1>;
        #size-cells = <1>;

        

        apb {
            #address-cells = <2>;
            #size-cells = <2>;
        
            clock-controller@800 {
                compatible = "amlogic,a1-clkc";
                reg = <0 0x800 0 0x104>;
                #clock-cells = <1>;
                clocks = <&clkc_pll CLKID_FCLK_DIV2>,
                         <&clkc_pll CLKID_FCLK_DIV3>,
                         <&clkc_pll CLKID_FCLK_DIV5>,
                         <&clkc_pll CLKID_FCLK_DIV7>,
                         <&clkc_pll CLKID_HIFI_PLL>,
                         <&xtal>;
                clock-names = "fclk_div2", "fclk_div3",
                              "fclk_div5", "fclk_div7",
                              "hifi_pll", "xtal";
            };
        };

    };
};

As you can see, header is required.

But looks like, dt binding checker is happy with the fake references hack :)
Below there is generated example dts:

cat Documentation/devicetree/bindings/clock/amlogic,a1-clkc.example.dts
===

/dts-v1/;
/plugin/; // silence any missing phandle references


/{
    compatible = "foo";
    model = "foo";
    #address-cells = <1>;
    #size-cells = <1>;



    example-0 {
        #address-cells = <1>;
        #size-cells = <1>;

        

        apb {
            #address-cells = <2>;
            #size-cells = <2>;
        
            clock-controller@800 {
                compatible = "amlogic,a1-clkc";
                reg = <0 0x800 0 0x104>;
                #clock-cells = <1>;
                clocks = <&clkc_pll_fclk_div2>,
                         <&clkc_pll_fclk_div3>,
                         <&clkc_pll_fclk_div5>,
                         <&clkc_pll_fclk_div7>,
                         <&clkc_pll_hifi_pll>,
                         <&xtal>;
                clock-names = "fclk_div2", "fclk_div3",
                              "fclk_div5", "fclk_div7",
                              "hifi_pll", "xtal";
            };
        };

    };
};

Yep, we are able to cheat dt checkers, but we don't help dt developers
with such example.
May be, it's better to prepare two patches in such hierarchy:

1) A1 PLL clkc bindings with fake references without clkc headers
2) A1 clkc bindings with real CLKID bindings + A1 PLL clkc bindings fix
with real CLKID A1 clkc bindings + header.

The such approach resolves DT checkers failures and split DT bindings
into two patchsets.
