[PATCH v3] clk: expand clk_ignore_unused mechanism to keep only a few clks on

From: Uwe Kleine-König
Date: Wed Oct 26 2022 - 11:18:28 EST


Allow to pass an integer n that results in only keeping n unused clocks
enabled.

This helps to debug the problem if you only know that clk_ignore_unused
helps but you have no clue yet which clock is the culprit.

Hello,

compared to v2 sent in August 2021 this is a trivial rebase on top of
v6.1-rc1. I pinged that one repeatedly, I'm now trying with resending
and calling the rebased patch v3 to maybe get some feedback. :-\

Best regards
Uwe
