Apologies for the broken threading.

My intention was to avoid using magic numbers on the DeviceTree. That's why I added them here.
Also, we have some custom drivers which we plan to upload and their schemas need those files.
The alternative would be to use magic numbers for our clocks and resets.

In the commit message and on the header file I have mentioned that these are numbers matching
the hardware specification (1 to 1) of the chip not just enums.
Some IDs are invalid because of a hardware gap, some others are invalid because the SCMI
service will return an error that the number is invalid.

Is there another way to prevent the magic numbers in the schemas and device-tree.

Thank you very much for your fast and detailed review.

Best regards,
Niko
