[PATCH v3 1/1] dt-bindings: timer: Add new OST support for the upcoming new driver.

From: 周琰杰 (Zhou Yanjie)
Date: Mon Oct 26 2020 - 12:02:37 EST


The new OST has one global timer and two or four percpu timers, so there
will be three combinations in the upcoming new OST driver: the original
GLOBAL_TIMER + PERCPU_TIMER, the new GLOBAL_TIMER + PERCPU_TIMER0/1 and
GLOBAL_TIMER + PERCPU_TIMER0/1/2/3, For this, add the macro definition
about OST_CLK_PERCPU_TIMER0/1/2/3. And in order to ensure that all the
combinations work normally, the original ABI values of OST_CLK_PERCPU_TIMER
and OST_CLK_GLOBAL_TIMER need to be exchanged to ensure that in any
combinations, the clock can be registered (by calling clk_hw_register())
from index 0.

Before this patch, OST_CLK_PERCPU_TIMER and OST_CLK_GLOBAL_TIMER are only
used in two places, one is when using "assigned-clocks" to configure the
clocks in the DTS file; the other is when registering the clocks in the
sysost driver. When the values of these two ABIs are exchanged, the ABI
value used by sysost driver when registering the clock, and the ABI value
used by DTS when configuring the clock using "assigned-clocks" will also
change accordingly. Therefore, there is no situation that causes the wrong
clock to the configured. Therefore, exchanging ABI values will not cause
errors in the existing codes when registering and configuring the clocks.

Currently, in the mainline, only X1000 and X1830 are using sysost driver,
and the upcoming X2000 will also use sysost driver. This patch has been
tested on all three SoCs and all works fine.

Notes:
v1->v2:
Rewrite the commit message so that each line is less than 80 characters.

v2->v3:
Add the description of why the exchange of ABI values will not affect
the existing driver into the commit message.
