Ok, what about a DT describing the following for a simple register-based
clock gating controller and the corresponding gated-clock independent of
the controller. I am sure there are a bunch of SoCs out there that
control their clock gates by writing some bits to a register. If that
DT description matches your expectations, I ll prepare patches with
documentation and implementation for common clock framework.
