Hi Inha,

Thanks for the patch. Please see my comments inline.

Could you please add a little more information? I know that it might
be pretty obvious to people familiar with this driver and/or hardware,
but it might be a good idea to explicitly say that the CLKOUT
controller is compatible with Exynos4, so only a new compatible string
is added.

On the other hand, do you really need to add a new compatible string
if an existing one can be reused? The reason why the DT property is
called "compatible" is to be able to use the same compatible strings
on different devices, because they are compatible, even though the
string might have its name after only one of them. If there is some
additional reason to add a new compatible string, please write this in
commit message.

Are you sure that the PMU DEBUG register on Exynos3250 is indeed
compatible with Exynos4 and not with newer SoCs? AFAIR, the only
difference was the number of bits (4 on Exynos4 and 5 on Exynos5?) of
the main mux.

Best regards,
Tomasz

In in PMU document(Document/devicetree/bindgins/arm/samsung/pmu.txt),
"samsung,exynos3250-pmu" compatible string had been added.

So I add this compatible in driver.

Exynos3250 PMU_DEBUG register is same with Exynos4. So I just use exynos4_clkout_init function.
But, on second thought, It looks good to add exynos3_clkout_init function for Exynos3 SoC even though it's the same with exynos4_clkout_init.

what is your opinion?

Inha Song.
