ping

Are there opinions about making PowerPC users of FEC use the same
clock names as ARM users do, to re-use (actually: keep sharing)
the FEC binding?  The alternative would be to fragment the FEC
binding into several bindings for ARM and PowerPC, which I feel
would be undesirable, and is not necessary.

It would be nice to ship v3.14 (the first release with proper CCF
support for MPC512x) in a shape that is consistent with other FEC
users (ARM i.MX).  We are lucky to have noticed the difference
before the release, and need not introduce the incompatibility,
and need not document and support obsolete conditions but can fix
them instead.
