My understanding is that in the device tree case, the input/source clock
frequency is assumed to be run-time managed through Global Clock
Controller (GCC) code and the common clock framework.

drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-qup.c:1549

src_clk_freq = clk_get_rate(qup->clk);

So a given I2C device tree entry points to the GCC device tree entry,
but there isn't an explicit, fixed input/source clock frequency value.

arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/msm8916.dtsi:310

blsp_i2c2: i2c@78b6000 {
        compatible = "qcom,i2c-qup-v2.2.1";
        reg = <0x78b6000 0x1000>;
        interrupts = <GIC_SPI 96 0>;
        clocks = <&gcc GCC_BLSP1_AHB_CLK>,
                <&gcc GCC_BLSP1_QUP2_I2C_APPS_CLK>;
        clock-names = "iface", "core";
        pinctrl-names = "default", "sleep";
        pinctrl-0 = <&i2c2_default>;
        pinctrl-1 = <&i2c2_sleep>;
        #address-cells = <1>;
        #size-cells = <0>;
        status = "disabled";
};

On the other hand, when ACPI is in use, the driver assumes a fixed
input/source clock frequency value, which it tries to look up as a
device property.

(I'm out of my depth here, so somebody please correct me if I've
described this wrong.)

Thanks,
Cov
