Thank you, looks good!

The modern way to avoid this dependency is to use hardcoded numbers in
the initial submission of the DTS, cfr.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/horms/renesas.git/commit/?h=arm64-dt-for-v4.15&id=d917e0b24811eadeba419ba7318b967ee15933b3

After the definitions have hit upstream, you can replace the hardcoded
numbers by symbols, cfr.

So I don't think Simon will merge the core clock definitions patch, unless
you plan to submit a full DTS describing the whole SoC in the initial
submissiong.
