Re: [alsa-devel] [PATCH v2] clkdev: add devm_of_clk_get()

Hi Stephen, again

Can I confirm ??
Was I misunderstanding ??

	------ Pattern1 -----------
	sound_soc {
		clocks = <&xxx>, <&xxx>;
		clock-names = "cpu", "codec";
		...
		cpu { /* of_cpu_node */
			...
		};
		codec { /* of_codec_node */
			...
		};
	};
	----------------------------

Do you mean, this case we can use

	devm_get_clk_from_child(dev, of_cpu_node,   "cpu");
	devm_get_clk_from_child(dev, of_codec_node, "codec");

	------ Pattern2 -----------
	sound_soc {
		...
		cpu { /* of_cpu_node */
			clocks = <&xxx>;
			...
		};
		codec { /* of_codec_node */
			clocks = <&xxx>;
			...
		};
	};
	----------------------------

And, this case, we can use

	devm_get_clk_from_child(dev, of_cpu_node,   NULL);
	devm_get_clk_from_child(dev, of_codec_node, NULL);

If so, I can use it without DT change.
