I'll probably combine the TOP and HEP ones at least. HEP clock stuff is much simpler than TOP, and a couple of clocks feed both ways between them which otherwise wouldn't need to be visible, suggesting they're pretty closely coupled. PERIP is pretty much a single bank of 14 system clock gates for individual peripherals, so that one's arguable. I'll probably separate it as there's only 1 input clock so it wouldn't be at all messy. PDC is pretty independent and can remain mostly unchanged (that is consistent with irq, pinctrl and gpio drivers too, where PDC low power stuff is independent and fits nicely into separate drivers). Thanks for the suggestions! James
