Hello Stephen,

Thanks for the comments once again :)

I still like keeping the chip type information on one header - no
matter what-ever format the clk-controller type/version information is.
Rationale is that MFD and also few other sub-devices (not only the clk)
need to use it. Currently at least the RTC.

But if we define clk register information for all PMICs in this c-file, 
then (I think) we can only include the <linux/mfd/rohm-generic.h> -
which contains the PMIC type defines and the generic MFD data
structure. That would:

-#include <linux/mfd/rohm-bd718x7.h>
-#include <linux/mfd/rohm-bd71828.h>
-#include <linux/mfd/rohm-bd70528.h>
+#include <linux/mfd/rohm-generic.h>

That way the chip-type information could still be same for MFD and all
sub-devices but clk driver would not need to include all the details
for all the PMICs. I understand your point well as clk registers for
these PMICs are really *limited*.

I think that bit-wise it is all the same. Currently registers are only
8bits wide so it is enough that lowest 8 bits are set. And 0xffffffff
should work nicely up-to 32bit registers as long as int is 32 bit or
more.

But you are correct that this is not looking good. At first sight
unsigned int is much nicer. I prefer unsigned int over forced u32 to
guarantee natural alignment - which does not really matter in this case
either. unsigned int matches regmap though so I'll switch to it. Thanks
for pointing this out :)

I'll try to include these clk changes in v3.
