Ok, I want to make it clear.  The following example

        baud_clk: dummy26m {
                compatible = "fixed-clock";
                clock-frequency = <26000000>;
                #clock-cells = <0>;
        };

        sys_clk: dummyclk {
                compatible = "fixed-clock";
                clock-frequency = <26000000>;
                #clock-cells = <0>;
        };

	uart0: serial at 11002000 {
[...]
                clocks = <&baud_clk>, <&sys_clk>;
[...]
	}

Do you think it is clear to reflect the HW that the baud clock and sys
clock can be different source or we need to choose another frequency?
Thanks.
