So from my research we would need to use CLK_OF_DECLARE_DRIVER for: mainpll (pll) syspll4_d16 (div) f10m_ref_sel (mux) infra_apxgpt_pd (gate) Anyway, as a quick fix we can delete the device node. I'll reword you commit message and I'll also reword commit message for 1/3 In the future please try to not put links into the commit message but explain what is happening. Regards, Matthias
