Right now it doesn't explain the _why_ part that you describe in the first paragraph here. That's what I'm asking to be put here as a comment. Also, GCC is the one exporting the XO clk on this platform so I'm a little lost why we're talking about rpm here. I guess I'm left to do the ton of work myself and get to have clk providers like this be clk consumers so that probe ordering is correct and clks aren't exposed until the whole parent chain exists. This is taking a step backwards and causes me to be sad. > > > > > > + if (IS_ERR(xo)) > > > + return PTR_ERR(xo); > > > + clk_put(xo); > > > + > > > + regmap = qcom_cc_map(pdev, &gpucc_msm8998_desc); > > > + if (IS_ERR(regmap)) > > > + return PTR_ERR(regmap); > > > + > > > + /* force periph logic on to acoid perf counter corruption */ > > > > avoid? > > Yes. Do you want a v3 with this fixed? Yes, please resend without the binding patch that I've already applied.
