To me, "platform-ohci" seems rather Linux-specific. Platform devices are
a Linux abstraction that don't correspond to any particular bus type in
reality.

We have some "*-generic" bindings. A name of that form might be more
appropriate. Or we could choose an arbitrary OHCI implementation's
vendor,ochi string and everything else can declare compatibility with
that.

A description of what the clocks are might be helpful.

How about something like:

- clocks: a list of phandle + clock specifier pairs, one for each entry
  in clock-names.

- clock-names: Should contain:
   * "ahb" - some description here.
   * "ohci" - some description here.

Thanks,
Mark.
