These nodes are not just any nodes, they are part of "ti,j721e-system-controller"
(well not really, we have been just calling these areas that to sneak around
the restrictions on "syscon", "simple-mfd" devices), and so can only have the
node names specified by that binding [0].
I'm working to convert these areas to normal "simple-bus" nodes, when that is
complete then the name "clock" will be fine again here.
