Add device-tree bindings for the RT2800 SOC wifi device found in older Ralink/Mediatek devices.Your subject was cut. Probably you wanted something like add "Realtek foo adapter" etc.Not sure I follow.
Your subject is oddly incomplete.

SoC devices rarely work without a clock.Before this patchset the code was doing 25 rt2x00dev->clk = clk_get(&pdev->dev, NULL); 24 if (IS_ERR(rt2x00dev->clk)) 23 rt2x00dev->clk = NULL;
That's driver. I am asking about hardware. Hardware rarely works without clock. Just because some driver works is not a really a good proof, because clock could be enabled by bootloader which would still prove my point: hardware cannot work without clock. Best regards, Krzysztof
