This looks like hardware register value... but after looking at driver
you rather need string... although REF_CLK_RESERVED is confusing. You
need to describe the feature, not some device programming model.

Then looking deeper it seems you just made a workaround around common
clock framework. At least for XO and SOC case - you just implemented a
clock mux in your PHY driver!

Implement a clock driver instead and handle only special case - clock
coming from IO.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
