Correct.

There is no choice in this case. 24 MHz crystal has to be present.
FWIW, including crystal node in SoC specific DTSI is already common pattern in
Allwinner ARM SoC DTSI files.

As I said, if one is accustomed to Allwinner ARM DT development, it would be
more surprising to include 24 MHz crystal node in each and every board DT.
