[PATCH v2 2/6] dt-bindings: clock: add DT bindings for AP806 core clocks

This commit adds the Device Tree binding description for the AP806
core clocks, used on Marvell Armada 7K/8K SOCs.

Since the AP806 core clocks register is part of the "DFX Server"
register area, the DT binding is meant to be used as a sub-node of the
DFX Server DT binding, which is described separately.

+* Clock bindings for Marvell MVEBU AP806 Core clocks
+
+The Marvell MVEBU Armada 7K/8K SoCs contain a block called AP806,
+hosting the CPU and other core components of the CPU. This Device Tree
+binding allows to describe the core clocks of the AP806, whose
+frequencies are determined by reading the Sample-At-Reset (SAR)
+register. This register is part of the DFX server register area,
+covered by the DT binding described at
+Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/marvell/marvell,ap806-dfx-server.txt. Therefore,
+the DT node for the AP806 Core clocks must appear as a child node of
+the DFX server Device Tree node.
+
+Clock consumers must specify the desired clock by having the clock ID
+in its "clocks" phandle cell.
+
+The following is a list of provided IDs and clock names for the core
+Armada AP806 clocks:
+
+ 0 = DDR
+ 1 = Ring
+ 2 = CPU
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: must be be one of the following:
+	"marvell,armada-ap806-core-clock"
+- #clock-cells: from common clock binding; shall be set to 1
+- clock-output-names: name of the output clocks
+
+Example:
+
+	coreclk: clk at 204 {
+		compatible = "marvell,armada-ap806-core-clock";
+		#clock-cells = <1>;
+		clock-output-names = "ddr", "ring", "cpu";
+	};
