Hi,

This series addresses the clock power management for SAMA7G5 and also
updates the master clock driver and sam9x60-pll driver to accommodate
the requests at [1] and avoid overclocking of CPU and MCK0 domains while
changing the frequency via DVFS.

I've just added my Ack tags to the whole series. I think that it brings so much important additions to our new SoC as well as fixing some (non urgent) bugs.

In order to streamline the process of including this series to upstream, do you want me to send you a pull-request? against latest clk-at91 branch in your tree?

Best regards,
Nicolas

The power management part is implemented by adding
save_context()/restore_context() on each clock driver (patch 1/15). Since
the PM part is necessary only for backup mode (supported on SAMA5D2 and
SAMA7G5) the pmc.c has been adapted to call the
save_context()/restore_context() only on switches to/from backup mode
(patch 2/15).

Patch 3/15 adds the securam clock on SAMA7G5. This is necessary for
backup mode of SAMA7G5.

Patch 4/15 adapt SAMA7G5 MCK1..4 driver to use the defines at
include/linux/clk/at91_pmc.h introduced in commit ec03f18cc222
("clk: at91: add register definition for sama7g5's master clock").

Patch 5/15 improves a bit readability in some places of master clock
driver.

Patch 6/15 enable the suspend/resume for clocks also for SAMA7G5.

Patches 7-10/15 adds fixes in master clock driver and sam9x60-pll driver.

Patches 11-12/15 address DVFS by adding notifiers for master clock driver
and sam9x60-pll driver to avoid overclocking for CPU domain and MCK0
domain.

Patch 13/15 removes the master clock prescaler from Linux clock tree
as it has been discovered a hardware bug on it and it may not lock
on some scenario although its output clock is stable.

Patch 14/15 decreases the low limit of MCK0 as it can go even to 32KHz.

Patch 15/15 uses clk_core_get_rate_recalc() in clk_rate_get().

Thank you,
Claudiu Beznea

Changes in v5:
- dropped patches 16/17, 17/17 from previous version
- in patch 02/15:
- use read_relaxed() to get the value at address pointed by
at91_pmc_backup_suspend
- removed of_find_device_by_node() from pmc_register_ops() since its
returned value was not used in the function (of_device_is_available()
is enough to know before mapping securam). of_find_device_by_node()
was the one which needed the changes of postcore_initcall() with
subsys_initcall() (as described in commit description from v4) thus
kept the postcore_initcall(); also updated the commit description
to reflect this.

Changes in v4:
- removed opp dependencies along with get_cpu_device() in patch 11/17 as
those functionalities are not available at the initialization time for
clocks instantiated with CLK_OF_DECLARE

Changes in v3:
- minor fixes in patch 1/7 (e.g. use regmap_read() + checks + update +
regmap_write() sequence instead of regmap_read() + checks +
regmap_update_bits()
- patch 4/17 has been updated after commit ec03f18cc222
("clk: at91: add register definition for sama7g5's master clock")
- patch 6-10/17, 14-17/17 are newly introduced
- notifier for sam9x60 div pll was introduced (patch 11/17) and
notifier logic for master clock div has been changed (patch 12/17)
to use safe divider on PRE_RATE_CHANGE events and update clock to highest
possible rate on POST_RATE_CHANGE events
- master clock prescaler has been removed from Linux clock tree for
SAMA7G5

Changes in v2:
- addressed code review comments
- collected tags
