The change above is for S4 and SOCs which fallback to S4. It allows the
third clock but let the schema validation compatible with two clocks
existing DTS. Here for the T7, I add requirement for the exact 3 clocks.

Do you recommend to require the 3 clocks for all S4 and S4 fallback, and
update the associated dtsi files ?
