Please note that Mark Brown has already merged the patch to
bcm2835-i2s that makes use of the PCM-clock added with this patch.

There is still some discussion around the best clock selection
method (especially low jitter for PCM and possibly PWM), but as I guess
not all “use-cases” for clocks are identical it would require some
parametrization.

As such parameters typically would go into device-tree here a
proposal for how we could implement the device-tree options:

	clocks: cprman@7e101000 {
		compatible = "brcm,bcm2835-cprman";
		#clock-cells = <1>;
		reg = <0x7e101000 0x2000>;

		/* CPRMAN derives everything from the platform's
		 * oscillator.
		 */
		clocks = <&clk_osc>;

		/* non default override for some clocks */
		clock@BCM2835_CLOCK_PCM {
			reg = <BCM2835_CLOCK_PCM>;

			/* all of the below properties are optional */

			/* only use the following as parents - but must
			 * be a member of all the permissible plls for this
			 * clock.
			 * note that PLLC is used for overclocking
			 * the ARM by downstream kernels, so it should not
			 * get used for PCM.
			 */
			parent-clock-names = “xosc”,
					     “plla_per”,
					     “plld_per”,
					     “pllh_aux”;
			/* alternate clock/divider selector */
			bcrm,clock-selector = <BCM2835_CLOCK_SELECTOR_LOWJITTER>;
			/* minimum divider used for fractional support */
			bcrm,min-div-f = <20>;
			/* alternatively defined explicitly as jitter */
			max-jitter-ns = <500>;
			/* mash_support defining the max MASH order */
			bcrm,max-mash-order = <BCM2835_MASH_ORDER_3>;
			/* possibly other parameters needed by the chosen
			 * clock selector.
			 */
		};
	};

Would something like this be acceptable?

I would then create a separate patchset based on this patchset to
introduce those features when I get back.

Thanks,
