ARM32 i.MX7ULP and ARM64 i.MX8QXP/i.MX8ULP all need to use two
clocks, PER and IPG. But current dt-bindings and dts, use one clock.

This patchset includes dts changes patch 4 and patch 5.
Patch 6 is to update driver use two clocks.

I think the patch order in this patchset would not break git bisect, it
just break ABI. But I not find good way how could not break ABI,
because only use one clock is wrong whether in dt-bindings or dtbs.

Should I use a fixes tag to dt-bindings, then break ABI is allowed?

Thanks,
Peng.
