We could do this, and I generally follow the practice of adding Fixes tags. I hadn't because without an upstream clock driver, the Aspeed port is not usable by anyone without making modifications. We're really depending on getting that code merged. I will send it as a fix to 4.15. Do you mind taking individual patches for the arm dt tree, or would you prefer a pull request? Cheers, Joel
