Subject: [PATCH 07/14] phy: qcom: qmp-pcie: Add a comment to clarify the
 use of "aux and "phy_aux" clocks

PCIe PHY hw on some SoCs require PCIE_PHY_AUX_CLK when the link enters L1SS
state. Historically, DTs of those SoCs passed this clock as "aux" clock.
But, SA8775P passed PCIE_PHY_AUX_CLK as "phy_aux" and PCIE_AUX_CLK as "aux"
mistakenly as the latter is not needed at all. Even though the SA8775P DT
got fixed, both of these clocks are kept here for backwards compatibility.

So add a comment to make it clear.
