You don't need -names if there's only 1 clock. But then how long until 
we have a list of any random clocks some how associated with an OPP.

I think this should really be solved within the clock framework. What 
you really need is "set my parent clock to the source that can provide X 
Hz". Could the assigned-clocks property work here (in the OPP nodes 
rather than the cpu nodes)?

Can't you add this to an existing example? We don't need to enumerate 
every possible option.
