I see, thanks for explanation. Indeed making entire @4035c000
(anlg_phy_g5_regs) a clock controller would not match actual hardware,
since rpll clock is a small part of it. I am afraid though, that you
will duplicate such pattern even for the cases where that
design/register range would be suitable to be a clock controller and a
syscon. In one device.

Please fix the other comments in my review - except this discussed here,
the last one from email:
