Normally there is the fix reference clock source used per each IPQ
platform, but we should keep it configurable, the CMN PLL block is
same among the supported IPQ platforms, Maybe there is special case
to switch the reference clock in the future.
i will also update the dtbinding doc to limit the reference clock based
on the compatible string.
