Ok, so how about such change in wording?



Also, maybe we could add a possibility of defining the APB clock for
whole APB "cluster" (as usually the same clock is shared across all
peripherals connected to a single AHB/APB bridge) using clock-ranges
parents? What I think about is something of this sort:

iofpga {
	clock-ranges;
	clocks = <&pclk>;
	clock-names = "apb_pclk";

	serial {
	        compatible = "arm,pl011", "arm,primecell";
		clocks = <&refclk>;
		clock-names = "uartclk";
	};
};

Cheers!
