Hi, Krzysztof Kozlowski,

I apologize for the inconvenience caused by sending patches multiple times due to my incomplete
understanding of your previous version's response. I have two questions about YAML files that I would 
like to confirm with you. The questions are as follows.

I have reviewed the writing method from other YAML files in the source code, 
and they all use “reg: maxItems: 1 ” instead of “reg: minItems: 1”. So we also
need to use “reg: maxItems: 1 ” in our YAML file. Is this understanding correct?

For clocks and clock-names, other YAML files have no minItems
and maxItems. Remove minItems and maxItems from
clocks and clock-names and as we have fix 2 clocks. Add description in clocks:items. 
Ref yaml: sophgo,sg2044-dwmac.yaml, starfive,jh7110-dwmac.yaml

All the changes will be added in cover letter in the next version. Is this understanding correct?
