Thanks for explanation. Please differentiate between these two:
1. clock inputs connected, but unused (not needed for driver or for
particular use case),
2. clock inputs really not connected.

For the 1. above, such clock inputs should still be listed in the
bindings and DTS. For the 2. above, such clocks should actually not be
there. How to achieve this depends on number of your combinations. IOW,
how many clocks are physically optional. For some small number of
variations this can be:
oneOf:
 - const: mclk
 - items:
   - const: mclk
   - enum:
       - bclk1
       - bclk2
       - bclk3
       - bclk4
 - items:
   - const: mclk
   - const: pll_ref
   - enum:
       - bclk1
       - bclk2
       - bclk3
       - bclk4

For a total flexibility that any clock input can be disconnected, this
should be a list of enums I guess (with minItems). However please find
the clocks always connected and include them if possible in a fixed way
(like this oneOf above).


Best regards,
Krzysztof
