This series converts mach-davinci to use the common clock framework.

Basically, this series does some cleanup and rearranging to get things
ready for the conversion. Then there is a patch to add new driver in
drivers/clk and finally a patch to make the conversion from the mach
clock drivers to the new drivers.

I have tested this on LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 (TI AM1808), so I am confident
that I haven't broken anything (too badly) in da850. But, I don't have
other hardware to test.

I tested this on a DA850-EVM, but I was not able to successfully get it to boot.

It hangs during boot with no errors, oops's, or panics, but the
standard 4.15.0-rc5 from linux-stable booted just fine.

Maybe one of the TI guys will have some suggestions, but as-is, it
appears to break at least the DA850-evm.

Thanks for testing. Unfortunately, the only hardware I have is the LEGO
MINDSTORMS, so I will have to rely on others to help with the debugging.
If you or anyone else with one of these boards can make the time, please
compile with:

CONFIG_DEBUG_LL=y
CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK=y

and add "earlyprintk" to the kernel command line options. You may need to
select a different UART for this depending on your board. I think UART1 is
the default in the kernel configuration.

On da850 devices comment out the line:

	clk_set_parent(clk, pll1_sysclk2_clk);

in da850.c when doing earlyprintk, otherwise the UART1 and UART2 clock source
will change during boot and cause garbled output after a point.

The one thing that I know I have broken is CPU frequency scaling on da850.
I don't think it was working with device tree anyway, so I can't really test
it with the hardware I have. I'm hoping that it will be OK to defer fixing
it and add device tree support at the same time.

I agree with you that it's broken in the device tree, but I don't
think it ever worked.

Dependencies:
* This series applies on top of "ARM: davinici: move watchdog restart from
   mach to drivers" [1][2]
* On da850, you will also need a patch to prevent problems with the USB PHY
   clocks [3]
* Or get it all at once:
     git fetch https://github.com/dlech/ev3dev-kernel.git common-clk-v4

That is what I pulled to test.
