That would be:

oneOf:
  - minItems: 1
    items:
      - enum: [core, pad]
      - const: pad
  - minItems: 1
    items:
      - const: pclk
      - enum: [core, pad]
      - const: pad

*-names is enforced to be 'uniqueItems: true', so we don't have to worry 
about repeated entries.

This also nicely splits between MMIO and MDIO.
