QREF is a separate hw block distributing the reference clocks across
certain on-SoC peripherals

If its power goes out, I don't think much of the platform would be
functional anyway, so it's redundant here..

It doesn't have its own single register region and it's frankly
one-shot-configured way before Linux starts up, so there should be
no need of describing it at all.
