Not really.  The #defines would then need to match the enum, and that's dual 
maintenance.  This method is better because you can use the real name of the 
clock source in the DTS.  That keeps the DTS from having to know the internal 
representation of clock sources.

(BTW, when I said "I just understand", I meant "I just don't understand".)
