Move the structure shared by the APCS IPC device and its subdevices into a separate header file.As you're creating the apcs regmap with devm_regmap_init_mmio() you can just call dev_get_regmap(dev->parent) in your child to get the handle.Ok, thanks!quoted
But I would prefer that you just add the clock code to the existing driver.This will require an ack from Stephen, and i got the impression that he prefers a separate clk driver [1]. Stephen, are you ok with registering the clocks from the apcs mailbox driver? [1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/6/26/750The parent regmap "trick" was the plan. Is something wrong with that?Not at all, but then this patch (moving apcs context to a shared header file) shouldn't be needed, or am I missing something?
Agreed.

Not having random clk drivers scattered throughout the tree is sort of nice because it makes for an easier time finding things that are similar. Maybe that's an abuse of the driver model though? Just to get things into some same directory. I'm fine either way.Keeping the clock driver in the clock subsystem does make sense. I see now that there is a include of a local header file as well, so that would just be messy to keep split. I'm fine with the extra driver instance, it's the DT that I don't think should describe the fact that we want to keep the clock-part in the clock subsystem. Do you see any problems spawning the clock driver programmatically and then calling of_clk_add_hw_provider() on the parent's of_node?
Nope. We shouldn't need to modify DT to make this work. -- Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. is a member of Code Aurora Forum, a Linux Foundation Collaborative Project -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
