But to i.MX8M, it is not feasible to drop those clocks, unless check the protected-clocks property before registering every clock. This is odd. So here I just wanna let i.MX8M clk driver prepare enable the clocks listed in protected-clocks property to avoid linux disable those clocks. > Anyway, please add a description to the binding what this property actually > does.
