Is this really generic rule? I haven't seen/heard any point regarding this on KS.

I don't think we should use prefix here. It is xilinx specific option
but there shouldn't be any problem to use fclk-enable without any prefix.
Because it means we have to also rename ps-clk-frequency.

We are using xlnx prefix for properties which are autogenerated from design tools
which is not even this case.

Thanks,
Michal
