This patch set adds a DT binding documentation for new 'clock-parents' and 'clock-rates' DT properties and a helper function to parse them. The helper is now being called from within the driver core, similarly as it is done for the pins configuration binding to a device.
Patch 1/2 adds a variant of of_clk_get() function which accepts name of a DT property containing list of phandle + clock specifier pairs, as opposed to hard coded "clocks" property name in of_clk_get(). Patch 2/2 actually adds the code searching for related DT properties at device node and performing re-parenting and/or clock frequency setting as specified. I didn't add sorting of clocks depending on parentship relation when setting the clock rates, it could be added in next iteration if it's decided it's required. Thank you for all the review comments. Changes since v3: - improved documentation of the DT binding, - fixed build errors for !CONFIG_OF, the parsing helpers are only compiled in if CONFIG_OF is set. Changes since v2: - code reordering to ensure there is no build errors, the clock configuration code moved to a separate file, - introduced an 'assigned-clocks' DT node which is supposed to contain clocks, clock-parents, clock-rates properties and be child node a clock provider node, and a code parsing it called from of_clk_init(); It's for clocks which are not directly connected to consumer devices. An alternative would be to list such assigned clocks in 'clocks' property, along with "proper" parent clocks, but then there would be phandles in clocks property of a node pointing to itself and it would require proper handling in of_clock_init(). I actually tried it but it looked a bit ugly and chose this time to use an extra subnode. Changes since v1: - updated DT binding documentation, - dropped the platform bus notifier, the clock setup routine is now being called directly from the driver core before a driver probe() call; this has an advantage such as all bus types are handled and any errors are propagated, so that, for instance a driver probe() can be deferred also when resources specified by clock-parents/clock-rates properties are not yet available; an alternative would be to let drivers call of_clk_device_setup() directly, - dropped the patch adding a macro definition for maximum DT property name length for now. Open issues: - handling of errors from of_clk_get_by_property() could be improved, currently ENOENT is returned by this function not only for a null entry. This series has been tested on ARM, on Exynos4412 Trats2 board.
