It has been brought to my attention these had been named *RESERVED*
deliberately, to avoid disclosing their meaning.
As these definitions are part of the DT ABI, and the DTS writer has to
relate the names to the actual clocks in the datasheet, and to the names
used in the DT bindings for the consumer devices (if ever upstreamed),
I find it hard to accept these for upstream inclusion as-is.

What do other people think?
Thanks!

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
