Re: [PATCH 0/3] Convert clk-fixed into module platform driver

Hi Stephen

Assume this device tree overlay:


&bus0{

axi_clk: axi_clk {
compatible = "fixed-clock";
#clock-cells = <0x0>;
clock-frequency = <125000000>;
};

iic_0: iic {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <1>;
compatible = "xlnx,xps-iic-2.00.a";
reg = < 0x00030000 0x10000 >;
interrupt-parent = <&xps_intc_0>;
interrupts = < 2 2 >;
clocks = <&axi_clk>;
 } ;

}

Which is basically a new i2c master and a fixed clock definition.

The fixed clock driver will only be probed to the driver at arch
initialization, when of_clk_init is called.  The device overlay can be
added at any point, usually after arch init. Which will result in ii_0
failing to probe,  because it is missing its clock.

This changeset allows fixed clocks to be added after of_clk_init is
called, by converting the driver into a platform driver.


Thanks!b
