This is a bit tricky. I would recommend describing the clock inputs
in the binding anyway, as "optional" properties, in case we ever get
a full DT-aware clocksource driver for lpc32xx.

I've just mentioned the topic to Roland yesterday, I would really
like to see such a clocksource driver done for other reasons
(multiplatform support), but introducing one with full DT support
is hard to do without breaking existing dtb files.
