Hi Krzysztof,

Thank you very much for the reviews.

Make sense. I will move it to the board file. Also I will only keep that 
we use in the board file.

Noted.

Ah, we missed that. thank you. I will keep the nodes as per the 
alphabetical order.

Thank you for the document, we will follow this document and will remove 
redundant nodes.

Noted, we will remove the "_" from the nodes. We do have clock 
controller however that is being accessed by other CPU before Linux will 
come-up.

So, the purpose of this clock nodes is to calculate the frequencies for 
other peripherals. (We will update the nodes with clock-<freq>)

Got it. Will move "reg = " in the second line.

Noted, will update on this and other nodes.

Make sense. I will remove the bootargs.
