In the past you were adamant that we use concrete SoC-specific strings.
Here that would mean s32g2 or s32g274 instead of s32cc (which aims to
share with S32G3 IIUC).

Do we have any precedence of bindings with *MII clocks like these?

AFAIU the reason there are so many here is that there are in fact
physically just five, but different parent clock configurations that
SCMI does not currently expose to Linux. Thus I was raising that we may
want to extend the SCMI protocol with some SET_PARENT operation that
could allow us to use less input clocks here, but obviously such a
standardization process will take time...

What are your thoughts on how to best handle this here?

Not clear to me has been whether the PHY mode can be switched at runtime
(like DPAA2 on Layerscape allows for SFPs) or whether this is fixed by
board design. If the latter, the two out of six SCMI IDs could get
selected in TF-A, to have only physical clocks here in the binding.

Regards,
Andreas
