Well, having renamed the node, I thought it made sense to keep the naming
consistent. Any further #define could be added to here instead of having to
add another file...

Well, that document was made a *long* time after the internal documentation
we used to generate the clock lists. There are a few things we had to do:
* Renumber peripherals. We decided a long time ago that u-boot and linux
would stick to zero based peripherals, and not one based numbers. It's next
to impossible to keep mixing number based across software base, so we use
UART0 while the hardware manual mentions UART1 -- It *is* documented
extensively with out SDK, and makes life using linux a lot easier. It's
across all our SDK, u-boot, webapps readmes, howtos etc.
* Rename some peripherals. Plenty of peripherals names made little sense
and had zero consistency, in fact, many names were different depending on
the place they were used! -- "flashnand"+"nand_flash"+"FNAND" etc,
"QUADSPI"+"QSPI" etc etc so we also re-normalized the names to match linux
conventions.
* Other internal reasons I can't document here
Also, the value here are made up anyway -- so I've decided to sort them to
make sure any clock that has a parent is numbered *after* the parent...

Why? I'm told that "Bindings aren't for linux" -- why can't I imagine
'something' needing them? Why would I decide NOT to include them,
as they are there? I 'factored' a few of them to the same number when
applicable.
This is all done automatically BTW -- a script takes the original clocking
spreadsheet, and converts it into a table, correcting 'human input' as it
goes along.

If you look in the .c file, you'll see that most gate have not just one
register/bit pair associated with them -- there are several, spread
across registers.. Also, there are clocks in there with two gates,
or none. Given that, I've decided a separate numbering
made sense.
As mentioned, it's arbitrary, with 'root' clocks numbered lowered than
sub-clocks.
Thank you!
