I don't understand how that changes anything, these are all out of tree
drivers based on an old kernel. I know that there are drivers for a lot
of the peripherals that are in-use in the vendor tree etc. What I am
looking to happen, before I apply patches for the k230, is that the clock
dt-bindings will have landed in linux-next - and ideally the pinctrl ones
too.

Thanks,
Conor.
