The commits with bindings are used in devicetree-rebasing repo, so we
want them to be separate.

Meson is the only or almost the only platform making such changes. I
don't get why, because the conflict could be easily avoided with using
different names for defines in bindings and local clock. Approach of
having bindings strictly tied with driver commit is never desired.
