Create devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider_w_node() which does something > After giving this second thought - I think there is limited amount of use cases where other than own or parent nodes should be used. Actually, the MFD node being parent is pretty much only use case I can think of where something else but own node should be used. Hence function like suggested devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider_w_node might invite thinking of clever hacks... So, perhaps introducing devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider_parent() (see idea below) would be option to consider? I feel the bd71837 driver is not only case where MFD is being parent which has the clock stuff in DT. static int __devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider(struct device *dev, struct clk_hw *(*get)(struct of_phandle_args *clkspec, void *data), struct device_node *of_node, void *data) { struct device_node **ptr; int ret; ptr = devres_alloc(devm_of_clk_release_provider, sizeof(*ptr), GFP_KERNEL); if (!ptr) return -ENOMEM; *ptr = of_node; ret = of_clk_add_hw_provider(of_node, get, data); if (!ret) devres_add(dev, ptr); else devres_free(ptr); return ret; } int devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider(struct device *dev, struct clk_hw *(*get)(struct of_phandle_args *clkspec, void *data), void *data) { return __devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider(dev, get, dev->of_node, data); } EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider); int devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider_parent(struct device *dev, struct clk_hw *(*get)(struct of_phandle_args *clkspec, void *data), void *data) { return __devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider(*dev, get, dev->parent->of_node, data); } EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider_parent); > just a friendly reminder, what's your opinion on adding this kind of > function (devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider_w_node)? or solutions 1/2? And are > these options safe what comes to reference counting of of_nodes? I thik the reference counting should not be a problem when use is limited to (MFD) parent device nodes, right?
