The LPC18xx implementation probably have these clocks as well but the
LPC1850 user manual only documents the main clock. Someone with access
to the IP block doc from Synopsys should be able to check which clocks
the MAC really needs.

Rockchip bindings have two clocks named "mac_clk_rx" and "mac_clk_tx".
These are probably the same as stm32 needs so maybe use these names
and move them into the main doc and update the rockchip binding.
