Thanks, already looking at k210-sysctl-v18...

"clock-output-names" is deprecated for clocks with a single output:
the clock name will be taken from the node name.
However, relying on a clock name like this is fragile.
Instead, your driver should use the phandle from the clocks property,
using of_clk_get_by_name() or of_clk_get().

Stephen: I'm a bit puzzled, as you suggest _not_ using of_clk_get()?
