I'm leaving this patch for Rob/DT maintainers to apply.

Maybe this should be added to the clock-indices area of the
document instead of here? It seems to me that you can't have
clock-indices if you have #clock-cells=<0>, and that's sort of
obvious because 0 cells means 1 output and >0 cells means
potentially many outputs.
