Agree, I list all the available compatible strings in GPT driver here in V2 patch.

Current GPT driver does NOT have the order requirement since it all gets clk by name, but
I think specifying the order is better, I update it in V2 patch.

I forgot that old example is still valid, so I will just use old example here, but the old
example of i.MX27 GPT already NOT match with latest i.MX27 dtsi GPT node, I update
it with latest GPT node in i.MX27 dtsi in V2 patch, please help review it, thanks.
