Contents of dts files are not "bindings", they are just device tree 
sources/data, defined according to some bindings. Bindings are defined 
sets of nodes and properties and their formats, as you can see in 
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/, where documentation of supported 
bindings is available.

So this patch doesn't update clock bindings, but rather device nodes. 
Following would be more appropriate: "ARM: dts: update clock IDs in 
device tree of Exynos5420".

However, as mentioned in comments to previous patches, most (if not all) 
of the changes below could be probably dropped.

Best regards,
Tomasz
