Hi Murali,

Thanks for the patch.  I'll  queue this patch for 3.8.

Please check with Sekhar as well. This is a preparation patch for common
clk framework support. ALso fixes some bugs on the existing code. As the
clk
patches are dependent on these patches, I would suggest you queue this
against 3.7 rcx.

The -rc cycle is for fixes only so this cannot get merged into v3.7
as-is. If the patch has some fixes embedded, its a good idea to separate
them out (and have the feature parts come after the fixes in the patch
series) so they can be considered for -rc cycle. The current description
does not detail what the issue is and what its impact is so when you do
separate it out, please mention those as well. It will help determine
the severity of the issue and convince maintainers to include it in v3.7.

Splitting the patch into fixes + features would make sense, Since the features
patch would again change the same piece of code changed by the fixes patch.
The fixes are not so critical enough so as to go into the rc-cycle. I think
merging in 3.8 would be a good idea.
