Hello Arnd,

Thanks for your code review.

The numbers seem rather arbitrary, and you have both holes as well as duplicate
numbers here. I would suggest you do one of two things instead:
I just worry about some special clocks may be added later so keep some
holes for them;

The duplicate numbers means clocks belong to different system control
domains.

a) have a separate header file per clock driver and make all the
numbers unique and consecutive within that header

b) use the same numbers as the hardware registers so you can put the
numbers directly into the dts and don't need a header to create
an artificial ABI between the clock driver and the boot loader.
This header file will be used by device tree (I like using the clock
name instead "magic number" in dts :) ), so how about keep them in one
header file and let dts just include one header file (not four files),
but remove the holes?

Thank you Arnd.

BR,

Bintian
