I understand compatible string can be a solution. But.. if someone starts talking about lacking method to set another flag, i.e., CLK_SET_PARENT_GATE, then we'll need another compatible string list. How do you think about defining possible required subset of the flags and using some more neutral flag-names acceptable in DT? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
