The clocks are the really hard part, simply because Mike's upcoming dt support for the divider and mux clocks will let me get rid of the small clocks that simply hold. And of course I also need the HIWORD_MASK flag for the clocks from the hisilicon series. Is there some sane intermediate step for the clocks? One possibility that comes to mind, would be to only declare the gates and provide fixed rate parents to the timer and mmc and add the divs and muxes when Mikes dt patches are ready. I.e. I would keep the gate clocks grouped like now to not have to declare 160 individual gates later :-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
