Without #clock-cells, there is CHECK_DTBS error, #clock-cells
was added in imx7ulp.dtsi, but missed in dt-bindings.

smc1 supports run mode control
00b - Normal Run mode (RUN)
01b - Reserved
10b - Very-Low-Power Run mode (VLPR)
11b - High Speed Run mode (HSRUN)

This is taken as cpu clock settings. When set this registers,
the cpu will be configured to run as specified frequencies as written
in patch 2(OPP table).

I will update commit msg in V2.

Thanks,
Peng.
