According to the Hardware User's Manual, USBL_EXTAL is used for USB3.0,
while you added the clock references to the EHCI nodes.
Are you sure EHCI is failing without this?

Still, it means we need to extend the bindings/driver for
renesas,rcar-gen3-xhci to handle USB_EXTAL.

For DU, the clock inputs are clearly defined in the bindings.

Sure.

Thanks!
