Convert Microchip PIT64B to YAML. Along with it clock-names binding has
been added as the driver needs it to get PIT64B clocks.

But these are different hardware blocks with different functionalities and
different drivers.

They do the same thing, they are timers... But the way they do it (from
hardware perspective) is totally different. With this would you still
prefer to have them merged?

Thank you,

Yeah, one binding would be my preference.

I'd probably just leave them separate if they're pretty much unrelated.
