I must admit that I don't understand the justification for this binding.

Why can't these clocks be descrbied elsewhere and wired up as usual? Why
must they be under the TI clock provide node?

>From the limited description above it sounds like the only reason this
exists is to work around a deficiency in the TI clock driver. That does
not sound like a very good reason for having this.

Thanks,
Mark.
