Hmm ok. Doesn't hurt so no need to change.

Ok. I must be remembering some never upstreamed checkpatch patch, ouch!

I've been pushing driver writers to use clk_hw_set_rate_range() so that
the core framework will clamp the frequency to what is supported. Can
you somehow use that for these clks?

I lost the context! But I think I'm just saying that if the clamping is
done in the core framework with limits then this function can just
return void because there aren't errors to be had.

I would still prefer to remove it. It's a semi-global API that's really
only used and exported by clk providers. We should expect an oops and
big callstack/crash if some driver author is using the API improperly.
Hopefully those developers are testing their code, and they see that
it's experiencing problems here. So the calling side screwing up during
development will very quickly realize they're doing something wrong vs.
noticing later that some clk is not there.

Can we move the checks to build time with some macro that defines the
configuration structure and has BUILD_BUG_ON() checks? Sure it doesn't
have much runtime overhead, but it has a codesize overhead and mental
logic overhead for something that would be better served with some
static check or documentation/comments and code review. Put another way,
it's not like this configuration is coming from random user input and so
we need to validate the input to make sure it's sane. We can validate
the input when merging the code or when building the code and avoid this
all.

Ok. I haven't really seen the underscores, except for in the cases when
some framework API needs to be split into some backend multi-plexing
function to handle different options while keeping the original function
signature around. Put another way, it's not a kernel idiom for driver
code, but I'm not too worried about it, so go with your own style if it
makes you happy.

Ok. Please also use the private tag to indicate that these are internal
things that shouldn't be used.
