It would be great to get rid of this clkdev data from the kernel as
well. Have you looked into encoding the aliases into your DT bindings?
I already switched all dt boards to dt clk definition (see patch 36 to 50).
These definition are kept for all non-dt boards (see in arch/arm/mach-at91/board-xxx.c).
This will be cleaned as soon as all non-dt boards are moved to dt.

Or have you looked into using of_clk_get?
If I remember correctly, the clk_get function first tries to get the clk from dt binding.
Then if it fails it uses the clk_lookup info. Am I right ?
If so, I don't need to use of_clk_get in drivers calling clk_get with a non NULL device
parameter.

The only place where I use of_clk_get is in init timer driver (at91sam926x_time.c).
I first try to retrieve the clk from dt, then if it fails (or if dt is not supported),
I use clk_get with a NULL device param, which will lead to clk_lookup search.


Tell me if I misunderstood the API.

Mike
