Yes.

No, the absence probably means that any clock-related properties in a .dts
file will just be ignored.

Looking at the driver source, it indeed has no support related to clocks at all.

The #clock-cells should be in the main video-receiver node.
Probably there is more than one clock output, so #clock-cells may be 1?
There is no need for a fixed-clock compatible, nor for clock-frequency
and clock-output-names.

But most important: this should be documented in the adv748x DT bindings,
and implemented in the adv748x driver.

Yes, the current audio_clk_c definition in the DTS assumes a fixed
crystal.

Or by the boot loader.  Anyway, you need to specify these in the DTS.

More or less.

Might become

    find_a_better_label_choice: video-receiver@70 {
            ...
    };

    &rcar_sound {
            clock = ...,
                    <&find_a_better_label_choice 0>,
                    ...
    };

as there may be multiple clock outputs on the ADV7482.
