Ok. Would this be better:
Clock, Reset and power management is not handled by this binding
and can e.g. be described by the parent node.

Is there a tutorial or a tool to convert?
I have only seen that a new format exists but zero experience.

Ok, yes. Seems to be redundant since omap is from ti only...

Well, the driver code package we have seems to support them and the idea (dream?)
is to make it a generic driver compatible to all of them.
So we could leave it out and add later (in the hope that it does not get
forgotten).

The idea behind this is that a driver can finally find out by different
means which SoC it is connected to.
At the moment we have to build different pvrsrvkm.ko for each one since
there is no "generic" driver yet.
So in the long run only img,sgx... should be there. And even this might
be boiled down to img,sgx5 (assuming that even 530/540/544) is detectable.
But at the moment we are not able to create working code without the
mix of soc and sgx versioning.
Basically it boils down if we want a basis that works today and is prepared
for tomorrow, or if we have to decide for either today or future and can't
bridge between.

I assume there is only one. At least it suffices to make the existing
driver work with it.

I am not yet sure if it is vendor specific or if all
SGX implementations need some timer.

Because nobody understands the current (out of tree and
planned for staging) driver well enough what the timer
is doing. It is currently hard coded that some omap refer
to timer7 and others use timer11.

Not sure if it is. This is probably available in undocumented
registers of the sgx.

Ok, it is the only example where we know that it works. So we do not
yet know how the GPU integration would have to look like for e.g. CI20
or BananaPi M3 (which are not that well converted to device tree like OMAP).
This project is quite at the beginning...

Both drivers have access to these registers. Likely, the gpu driver
ignores them and does access other ranges.

Yes, is better to name it according to the function.
