Thank you. Now that the parent/child issue with timer/watchdog is resolved I am now having an issue trying to access "iopclk" from "gxp-timer". I have tried use of of_clk_get_by_name and of_clk_get which both fail to find the clock.
Is it because clocks is outside of the axi -> ahb hierarchy?

        clocks {
                pll: pll {
                        compatible = "fixed-clock";
                        #clock-cells = <0>;
                        clock-frequency = <1600000000>;
                };

                iopclk: iopclk {
                        compatible = "fixed-factor-clock";
                        #clock-cells = <0>;
                        clock-div = <4>;
                        clock-mult = <4>;
                        clocks = <&pll>;
                };
        };

        axi {
                compatible = "simple-bus";
                #address-cells = <1>;
                #size-cells = <1>;
                ranges;
                dma-ranges;

                ahb@c0000000 {
                        compatible = "simple-bus";
                        #address-cells = <1>;
                        #size-cells = <1>;
                        ranges = <0x0 0xc0000000 0x30000000>;

                        ...

                        st: timer@80 {
                                compatible = "hpe,gxp-timer","simple-mfd";
                                reg = <0x80 0x16>;
                                interrupts = <0>;
                                interrupt-parent = <&vic0>;
                                clocks = <&iopclk>;
                                clock-names = "iopclk";

                                watchdog {
                                        compatible = "hpe,gxp-wdt";
                                };
                        };
                };
        };

Thanks,
