[RFC PATCH 1/2] clk: add support for critical always-on clocks

From: Marco Felsch
Date: Tue Sep 13 2022 - 06:22:06 EST


Add support to mark specific clocks as always-on (critical), like the
regulator-alawys-on property. So the platform integrators can specify
the property on a per device basis by specifying it within the firmware
and not only within the driver. Unlike the regulator framework the clock
framework uses a 1:n matching, which means 1 firmware node can provide
up to n clock providers. Therefore the binding uses a string-array so we
can specify n clock providers as critical.
