SubjectRe: [PATCH 04/12] clocksource: Sched clock source for Versatile Express
From
Date
Hi Rob,

Thanks for reminding me about this stuff. I'll get around and re-spin
the series this week.

Hm. Strictly speaking it's true (no code level dependency) but if one
doesn't build sysreg driver, one doesn't care

Don't think so, no. It's being selected by an arch.

Yes. Can bump it up anyway.

I don't see why would it go to the binding. You may have noticed the
register is called "SYS_24MHZ", not "SYS_RANDOMCLOCK". The driver
*knows* what the frequency is.

I guess it would, yes. The sysregs are annoyingly similar and different
at the same time.

One could of course try to come up with a "generic mmio clock source"
binding, taking the frequency as a property, but don't count on me doing
this... ;-)
