I don't think there's any reason for virtual_ck_mpu or virt_prcm_set to have a parent clock listed. At some point this year, those virtual OPP clocks will be removed from the clock tree and implemented in a different manner. If you like, I will send a patch for removal of virtual_ck_mpu from OMAP1, although my suspicion is that OMAP1 is just missing a CPUFreq driver to use that OPP clock. - Paul -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
