Hi Gregory, Ezequiel,

>> Are we still in time to consider Emilio's oneline proposal?
(Emilio: would you mind preparing a suitable patch against dove,
kirkwood, armada370/xp, so we can see the real thing?).

The patch is in a common file, so it does not need patching anything for each platform.

I am still strongly against this proposal because hard-coded the parent
clock name in the driver seems very wrong

It is hardcoded already when the parent is registered, so I do not understand your concern.

http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/clk/mvebu/common.c?v=3.13#L34

and moreover in some circumstances
(if there is no output-name, which is our default case) this proposal
just ignored the parent clock given by the device tree and this looked
more wrong.

I have sent a second patch addressing this comment, but you do not seem to have taken too serious a look at it.

Cheers,

Emilio
