I looked at further into separate compatible option or reg-names
to check if it can help to reduce some additional dt information.
Actually it doesn't help much. The base programming model is shared
between both types of PLL IPs. The PLLs which has PLL controller along
with MMRs, has to take into account additional bit-fields for the
multiplier and divider along with the base model multiplier and divider
registers.

Having said that, there are few parameters which are fixed like
plld_mask, pllm_upper_shift etc need not come from DT. I am going
to remove them from dt bindings and also make the reg index consistent
as it should have been in first place.

Rest of the comments are fine and will be addressed in next version.

Santosh
