I don't think the pclk clock rate matters a lot. It should be sufficient for the driver only to enable/disable the pclk for registers access, just like the way the pwm-imx driver uses the ipg clock. > > > And, the clock-names property should exactly contain "pclk", "refclk" > > and "cfg_clk", right? > > My personal preference would be to drop the superfluous "clk" prefix if > the resulting clock name is still clearly relatable to the official > name.

I'd like to use them. Thanks. BTW, regarding the compatible string topic, shall I keep my implementation unchanged and don't append the additional "snps,dw-mipi-dsi" as I shared my concerns about it before?
