From: Conor Dooley <conor.dooley at microchip.com>
Ryan added cdns,refclk-ext with the intent of decoupling the source of
the reference clock on sama7g5 (and related platforms) from the
compatible. Unfortunately, the default for sama7g5-emac is an external
reference clock, so this property had no effect there, so that
compatibility with older devicetrees is preserved.
Replace cdns,refclk-ext with one that supports both default states and
therefore is usable for sama7g5-emac.
For now, limit it to only the platforms that have USRIO controlled
reference clock selection, but this could be generalised in the future.
