I will add the string in the clock arrays and remove all the string definitions.

I can do it.

If I remove syscon I can't use syscon_node_to_regmap function, What
should I use If I remove syscon? auxiliary bus? something else?

I little bit confused, what is an auxiliary bus to register drivers,
can you provide me an example?

Indeed, but the drivers could use the reset and clock memory map only
if the module is also a child node.

Please let me know what is your preferred way to handle it:
1. stick with syscon and upstream-defined documentation for the rst clk syscon.
2. avoid syscon and use an auxiliary bus, appreciate if you could give
me an example of how it should be done.
3. Avoid sycon and handle it differently.

Yes, the USB PHY reset is handled through the GCR registers.
