Seems like the comment should be one line earlier?

There is value in basing the names on the datasheet, but you could
append something meaningful on the end:

#define JH7100_SYSMAIN_REGISTER49_DLYCHAIN 0xc8

???

You should probably document that if starfive,gtxclk-dlychain is not
found in the DT blob, the value for the delay chain is undefined.  It
would actually be better to define it, set it to 0 for example. That
way, you know you don't have any dependency on the bootloader for
example.
