ST have sent patches which remove clock support for these SoCs [1]
which once applied mean the platform will no longer boot.

This series cleans up various STi platform drivers which have
support for these SoC's, by removing code, and updating the DT
documentation accordingly. Some drivers such as miphy365 and
stih41x-usb can be removed completely because the IP is only
found on these legacy SoC's.

Once this series is applied, drm display driver, and ALSA SoC
are the main two remaining references to the legacy SoCs, other
than clocks which already have patches on the ML.

It would be good to have a better explanation that "it's already
broken by some other commit". Is this a platform that never shipped
to end-users, or is it possible that someone out there actually
has a machine with one of these SoCs?

This series is prematured as today STiH415/416 is not broken by any commit.

This series is depending on the merge of a ST's clock series not yet upstreamed.
(see https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9157571/)

STMicroelectronics expect to remove STiH415/416 in a near future from upstream kernel.
