We're _extremely_ inconsistent with terminology, so it's not confusing people don't know what to put here. Elsewhere people say "phandle + clock specifier" (which is correct), "clock reference" (which is ok, but sounds like a phandle), etc. From what I recall some documentation says some *-specifier properties include the phandle too. It would be really nice if we had one consistent way of refering to phandle+args style properties. > > I would just call it 'the input clock', rather than 'input clock > phandle'. That's fine by me, given clocks is a well-understood standard property.
