Hmm. Maybe I need to take a closer look. I'm a little worried that, since __clk_round_rate() can be called from omap3_noncore_dpll_set_rate(), we might wind up with inconsistent behavior. Effectively we'd need to mandate that clk_round_rate() would have to be called first for any DPLL where we'd expect to set an exact rate. - 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
