[RFC PATCH v2] media: v4l2-common: Add a helper for obtaining the clock producer
From: Mehdi Djait
Date: Mon Mar 10 2025 - 08:23:28 EST
Introduce a helper for v4l2 sensor drivers on both DT- and ACPI-based
platforms to retrieve a reference to the clock producer from firmware.
This helper behaves the same as clk_get_optional() except where there is
no clock producer like ACPI-based platforms.
For ACPI-based platforms the function will read the "clock-frequency"
ACPI _DSD property and register a fixed frequency clock with the frequency
indicated in the property.

v1 -> v2:
Suggested by Sakari:
- removed clk_name
- removed the IS_ERR() check
- improved the kernel-doc comment and commit msg
