Re: [PATCH v1 01/11] dt-bindings: clock: add Allwinner B288 CCU

Hi Pablo,

many thanks for sending this series, on a first glance this looks pretty good.
As a general comment: please add a cover letter (git format-patch ... --cover-letter, then edit the generated file), and explain a bit about the background of this work. This would be a good place to briefly describe what the B288 is, how it's related to other SoCs, how you came to all this information, the firmware story, and the existing limitations of this port.

One problem in general is the lack of access to a manual, I am not even sure we ever upstreamed SoC support without one. Especially the clock driver is quite tricky, we would love to compare the clock descriptions against some documentation.

I am afraid you cannot push off the responsibility to other people, especially I think Maxime wouldn't be really interested any more ;-)

Actually, why do you need a separate binding? Wouldn't it be enough to just add the compatible string to the existing allwinner,sun4i-a10-ccu.yaml file? This one here looks like a subset of this, and would blend in there easily.

Cheers,
Andre
