Hi,

a small series to review how the SCMI Clock driver chooses and sets up the
CLK operations to associate to a clock when registering with CLK framework.

SCMI clocks exposed by the platform sports a growing number of clock
properties since SCMI v3.2: discovered SCMI clocks could be restricted in
terms of capability to set state/rate/parent/duty_cycle and the platform
itself can have a varying support in terms of atomic support.

Knowing upfront which operations are NOT allowed on some clocks helps
avoiding needless message exchanges.

As a result, the SCMI Clock driver, when registering resources with the
CLK framework, aims to provide only the specific clk_ops as known to be
certainly supported by the specific SCMI clock resource.

Using static pre-compiled clk_ops structures to fulfill all the possible
(and possibly growing) combinations of clock features is cumbersome and
error-prone (there are 32 possible combinations as of now to account for
the above mentioned clock features variation).

This rework introduces a dynamic allocation mechanism to be able to
configure the required clk_ops at run-time when the SCMI clocks are
enumerated.

Only one single clk_ops is generated for each of the features combinations
effectively found in the set of returned SCMI resources.

Based on sudeep/for-linux-next.

Thanks,
Cristian

  clk: scmi: Allocate CLK operations dynamically
  clk: scmi: Add support for state control restricted clocks
  clk: scmi: Add support for rate change restricted clocks
  clk: scmi: Add support for re-parenting restricted clocks
  clk: scmi: Add support for get/set duty_cycle operations
