AFAIK these won't conflict with other dts changes, so you could merge
them if you like and they look OK. Or we can also wait for v5.18-rc1 and
then I'll pick up the dts changes.

Well the use case here is to be able to rename bandgap_fclk@1888 node to
use the standard clock node name like the patches I've posted for am3/4
and dra7 are doing.
We can't do that quite yet rename the non-standard clock nodes for omap4/5,
first the TI clock driver internal clock naming needs to be unified to
follow am3/4 and dra7 to avoid adding yet more name translation code. I'll
post patches for those changes after v5.18-rc1.
I agree relying on the clock-output-names is not ideal, but currently the
TI clocks are still structured to match clock nodes to the clock data
based on the name. I think only the TI clkctrl clock currently maps the
devicetree nodes to clock data based on the IO address currently.
Probably best to fix the warnings first before tackling any further
driver changes :)
The TI SoCs produce over 70k unique_unit_address warnings with make W=1
and over 30k node_name_chars_strict warnings with make W=2, these are
all mostly for clocks..

Tony
