Hi Gregory,

(...) what would be an acceptable
version would be the something like the patch attached. There will be still
an issue if old dtb is used with recent kernel, but at least the user will
be warned.

The patch you attached is similar in spirit to what I suggested, but with way more warnings sprinkled around. I don't really mind either way, and if you prefer big warnings so be it; it's your driver after all :-)

This code only fix the Armada 370 case, a complete solution should modify
the dtsi for Armada XP, Armada 375, Armada 38x, Kirkwood and Dove. It should
also make the outputname mandatory for gate-clk for consistency.

Again, all of them are your calls. Fix the issue as you see fit; as long as it's a technically sound I'm ok with it. But please don't reinvent the wheel on framework code under a principle that has no proven reason to be to cover up for a buggy driver.

Cheers, and have a great Wednesday :)

Emilio

PS: I'd really appreciate it if you could keep me cc'ed on respins of patches I comment on in the future.
