Look up of_clk_set_defaults() function in drivers/clk/clk-conf.c. This function gets invoked usually during clock registration, and also gets called in platform_drv_probe(), so the parents and clocks do get configured before your driver gets probed. So, this provides a default configuration if these properties are supplied (in either clock nodes or actual device nodes), and if your driver needs to change the rates at runtime, then you would have to do that in the driver itself. regards Suman -- 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
