The dpi_ck clock can be removed because it not actually used in topckgen and subsystems. Signed-off-by: James Liao <redacted>From our past discussions this change looks about right, and should still become _part of 4.2_, to not have the CLK_TOP_DPI become part of the devicetree CLK_TOP_DPI.Did you mean ABI?
yep, sorry

Reviewed-by: Heiko Stuebner <heiko@sntech.de>Is it being used in DT right now and causing regressions on v4.2-rcX? Sorry, I'm trying to understand why this patch matters for the 4.2 release.
it's not been used in an actual devicetree file, but as far as I understand it, the dt-binding headers themself are also part of the ABI. And it is new in 4.2, so has not been part of an official release yet. The reason for the removal from what I understand is that the removed clock is not documented at all (it's source, what it does), which got it the "clk_null" parent in the first place. Heiko
