Hi Mark,
Thanks very much for review.
About the clock name should be the PoV of _this_ device. Could you
help check below?

After we check with our SMI Designer. Every SMI local arbiter need
two clocks, which is called APB clocks and SMI clock.
APB clock : Advanced Peripheral Bus Clock. It is the clock for
setting the register of local arbiter.
SMI clock : Smart Multimedia Interface Clock, It is the clock for
transfering the data and command.
And all the local arbiters need the smi common clock, so we
separate it.
Then I prepare to design the smi the dtsi like this:
smi_common:smi@14022000 {
compatible = “mediate, mt8173-smi”;
reg = <0 0x14022000 0 0x1000>;
clocks = <&mmsys MM_SMI_COMMON>;
clocks-names = “smi_common”;
};
larb0: larb@14021000 {
compatible = “mediate, mt8173-smi-larb”;
reg = <0 0x14021000 0 0x1000>;
smi = <&smi_common>;
clocks = <&mmsys MM_SMI_LARB0>,
<&mmsys MM_SMI_LARB0>;
clocks-names = “apb_clk”, “smi_clk”;
};
larb1: larb@16010000 {
compatible = “mediate, mt8173-smi-larb”;
reg = <0 0x16010000 0 0x1000>;
smi = <&smi_common>;
clocks = <&vdecsys VDEC_CKEN>,
<&mmsys VDEC_LARB_CKEN>;
clocks-names = “apb_clk”, “smi_clk”;
};
…
In some local arbiter, the source clock of the APB clock and the
SMI clock may be the same, like larb0. so the two clocks are the same.
And they may be different in other local arbiteres, like larb1.
If it is designed like this, is it ok?
