We still have an issue that this clock input is also present in the 
bindings specification broadcom-bluetooth.yaml (not in bluetooth 
subfolder). This clock is actually a chip resource. What happens if both 
are defined and both wifi and bt drivers try to enable this clock? Can this 
be expressed in yaml or can we only put a textual warning in the property 
descriptions?
