There was some discussion on passing PLL configuration information too.
So yes, the structure is likely extended in future.

Also, most boards end up using the reference clock used by the EVM.
In that case, with this approach, most boards just pass NULL instead of
replicating the reference clock frequency in all board files.

Thanks,
