There is no way to set additional flags for a DT-initialized fixed- factor-clock, and it can be problematic i.e., when the clock rate needs to be changed. [1][2] This patch introduces an optional dt-binding named "clock-flags" to be used for passing any needed flags from dts.I don't think we want this in DT. If we did, the flags would need some documentation about what the flags mean.
Flags are specific to Linux implementation, so I agree with Rob. Better to create a compatible string for your hardware that bakes in the flags. Regards, Mike
