Having split patches is better, I was really commenting on the fact that ideally you would not have a header file at all. If we merge the header through arm-soc, then you won't be able to merge the clk driver easily, and if you merge the header through the clk maintainer, I'm can't take your dts files. > >> +/* fixed rate */ > >> +#define HI3519_FIXED_400M 1 > >> +#define HI3519_FIXED_200M 2 > >> +#define HI3519_FIXED_125M 3 > >> +#define HI3519_FIXED_150M 4 > >> +#define HI3519_FIXED_75M 5 > >> +#define HI3519_FIXED_300M 6 > >> +#define HI3519_FIXED_50M 7 > >> +#define HI3519_FIXED_24M 8 > >> +#define HI3519_FIXED_3M 9 > >> + > >> +/* mux clocks */ > >> +#define HI3519_FMC_MUX 32 > >> +#define HI3519_I2C_MUX 33 > >> +#define HI3519_UART_MUX 34 > >> +#define HI3519_SYSAXI_MUX 35 > >> + > >> +/*fixed factor clocks*/ > >> +#define HI3519_SYSAPB_CLK 64 > >> + > >> +/* gate clocks */ > >> +#define HI3519_FMC_CLK 129 > >> +#define HI3519_UART0_CLK 153 > >> +#define HI3519_UART1_CLK 154 > >> +#define HI3519_UART2_CLK 155 > >> +#define HI3519_UART3_CLK 156 > >> +#define HI3519_UART4_CLK 157 > > > > Where do those numbers come from?

If the numbers are completely arbitrary and you have no idea what other clocks there are, you can simply have consecutive numbers here and do the driver accordingly. If the numbers actually have a real meaning, then you either don't need them at all, or you could just put all numbers in there that you would eventually need. > >> +#define HI3519_NR_CLKS 256 > >> +#define HI3519_NR_RSTS 256 > >> > > These seem to not be needed at all. > > These are used in drivers/clk/hisilicon/clk-hi3519.c. Then move them there. Anything that is not needed by *both* the driver and the dts files doesn't belong in here.
