Yes. The ARM/GIC maintainers objected against not using clock-names, as
some GIC variants have multiple clocks.
Hence commit afbbd23381767aec ("irqchip/gic: Document optional Clock and
Power Domain properties") was born...

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
