You mean "In general, assigned-clocks* do not need to be documented
and should never be required."[1] and "Whatever clock setup needed is
outside the scope of a binding"[2]?

In this case, it's not generic, and not specific to "renesas,rz-rtca3",
but related to the integration of RTC-A3 on the RZ/G3S SoC.
Which is indeed not relevant for the RTC-A3 bindings, so I agree the
assigned-clock* properties should not be part of this binding.
At least they're present in the example in the bindings ;-)
