So hardware guys tell you that you're _supposed to_ ignore the clock ready bit for that clock and just hope it turns on and settles in time once power comes on for the clock? That doesn't seem ideal. My guess is that it's a bug in the specification that the QMP PHY hardware designers gave you. Stephen can feel free to override me if he disagrees since he's in charge of the clock part of this, but IMHO we should get the specification fixed and turn things on in the order that lets us check the status bits. -Doug -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arm-msm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
