Sorry, I will fix it in the next version.

These definitions are currently only used in two places, one is when 
using "assigned-clocks" to configure the clock in the DTS file; the 
other is when registering the clock in the sysost driver. When 
exchanging the values of "OST_CLK_PERCPU_TIMER" and 
"OST_CLK_GLOBAL_TIMER", the corresponding values will be changed 
synchronously when the clock is driven to register and when the clock is 
configured through "assigned-clocks". Therefore, there is no situation 
that causes the wrong clock to the configured. And it has been tested on 
X1000 and X1000 and X1830 SoCs, all working fine.

I'm sorry because I didn't think carefully when writing this header 
file, and caused the current trouble.


Thanks and best regards!
