Arnd, Thomas,

Thanks for your valuable input and for your patience.

I'm attaching yet another proposal for this clock driver. I've 
flattened the .dts and ensured register access protection. I've also added 
one more clock source (osc0er) and clock gate to it.

Can you comment this one too?

I wonder if you could move out the fixed rate clocks into their own
nodes. Are they actually controlled by the same block? If they are
just fixed, you can use the normal binding for fixed rate clocks
and only describe the clocks that are related to the driver.
In my view having these clocks grouped together looks more convincing. After
all, they all share the same I/O regs in order to read configuration.
The fact that they share a register is not making them a group. That's
just a HW design decision and you need to deal with that by protecting
the register access, but not by trying to group them artificially at
the functional level.

Thanks,

	tglx
