The top-level said it can be maximum 1, so raising it in allOf:if:then:
should not be enough

A bit over-complicated... why not running dtbs_check against the schema
you changed?

Maybe that binding just fails to apply to DTS because of missing or not
correct compatibles.

The way is to entirely drop assigned-clocks. I don't think there are
much benefits of having them in the bindings. Maybe if specific rates
are required, then yes - device cannot work with other rates and you can
verify it with dtbs_check. But otherwise it is like adding values of
'reg' or 'interrupts'. Plus some board might require third item and then
what?
