Should come from DT itself.
Yes. It can be defined as fixed-clock node in device tree.
Do you mean it should be defined in device tree and driver reference it
via device tree?
Yes the oscillator should be in DT and then the DT node here can call
clk_get() or just hardcode the parent name to be what it knows it is.
Eventually we'd like to be able to move away from string names for
hierarchy descriptions but that's far off. To get there, we would need
DT nodes for clock controllers to indicate their clk parents with the
clocks and clock-names properties. So for the oscillator, DT would
define it and then the driver would eventually have a way to specify
that some parent is index 5 or clock name "foo" and then the clk core
could figure out the linkage. I haven't written that code yet, but I'll
probably do it soon if nobody beats me to it.
Thanks. Will update.

Please register clk_hw pointers instead of clk pointers with the of
provider APIs.
Sorry. I'm not sure I understand you correctly.
If only registering clk_hw pointer, not registering of_provider API, then
how to reference it in the user drivers ?
Could you please give me more hints ?
Clk provider drivers shouldn't be using clk pointers directly. Usually
when that happens something is wrong. So new clk drivers should register
clk_hw pointers and pretty much only deal with clk_hw pointers instead
of struct clk pointers. You still register an of_provider, but that
provider hands out clk_hw pointers so that clk provider drivers aren't
tempted to use struct clk pointers.
Understood. Will update to use clk_hw_onecell_data and change the
registration accordingly.

Can the PLL have multiple parents?
Yes. But not in this platform.
The define here make it easy to expand to support new platform.

What does VT mean? Virtual?
Yes. VT means virtual here.
Will change to GATE_CLK_VIRT.
Is it a hardware concept? Or virtualization with hypervisor?
Some peripheral drivers want to use same code cross platforms.
But not all platforms provide HW gate clock. So in this case, clock
driver creates
a virtual gate clock to make it work if no HW gate clock in the SoC.

+CLK_OF_DECLARE(intel_grx500_cgu, "intel,grx500-cgu", grx500_clk_init);
Any reason a platform driver can't be used instead of CLK_OF_DECLARE()?
It provides CPU clock which is used in early boot stage.
Ok. What is the CPU clock doing in early boot stage? Some sort of timer
frequency? If the driver can be split into two pieces, one to handle the
really early stuff that must be in place to get timers up and running
and the other to register the rest of the clks that aren't critical from
a regular platform driver it would be good. That's preferred model if
something is super critical.
Yes, CPU clock is providing CPU frequency in the early boot stage.
Will put the non-critical clocks in the platform driver.
