Unless the PHY consumes CXO directly, it should not be included in the
binding as you are suggesting here.

We discussed this at some length at the time with Bjorn and Shazad who
had access to the documentation and the conclusion was that, at least on
sc8280xp, the PHY does not use CXO directly and instead it should be
described as a parent to the UFS refclocks in the clock driver:

	https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Y2OEjNAPXg5BfOxH@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

The downstream devicetrees have a bad habit of including parent clocks
directly in the consumer node instead of modelling this in clock driver
also for other peripherals.

What exactly is wrong with those commits? We know that the controller
does not consume GCC_UFS_REF_CLKREF_CLK directly, but describing that as
such for now was a deliberate choice:

	GCC_UFS_REF_CLKREF_CLK is the clock to the devices, but as we
	don't represent the memory device explicitly it seems suitable
	to use as "ref_clk" in the ufshc nodes - which would then match
	the special handling of the "link clock" in the UFS driver.

I was hoping the information that those commits are based on would be
correct as it came from Qualcomm and Bjorn. I have no illusions about
the downstream devicetrees being correct. :)
