[PATCH v3 09/13] i3c: dw-i3c-master: Add a quirk to skip clock and reset

From: Akhil R

Date: Thu Apr 23 2026 - 05:06:18 EST


Some ACPI-enumerated devices like Tegra410 do not have clock and reset
resources exposed via the clk/reset frameworks. Unlike device tree, ACPI
on Arm does not model such provider functions. The hardware is expected
to be brought out of reset and have its clocks enabled by the firmware
before the OS takes over. Any data to be shared with the OS is passed
using the _DSD property.

Add a match data for such devices to skip acquiring clock and reset
controls during probe and read the clock rate from the "clock-frequency"
_DSD property. Note that the "clock-frequency" here is the controller's
core clock and not the bus speed. I3C specifies the bus speed separately
using "i3c-scl-hz" and "i2c-scl-hz" and hence this should not cause any
conflict.

Also, move match data parsing before clock/reset acquisition so the quirk
is available early enough.
