For these "*gpll0_clk_src" and "*gpll0_div_clk" clocks, there is no halt bit to check the status and it is required to have delay for few cycles so that clock gets turned on before a client driver to use the hardware.

Ok.. but then why is there a 'halt_reg' configured for the clk?

Thanks for the review.
I will remove the halt_reg for the clocks where we are using the 'HALT_DELAY' flag and there is no need to poll the status bit as we are returning early
from the 'clk_branch_wait()' function.

For ufs_card tx/rx symbol clocks, we don't poll the status bit as
per the recommendation from the HW team. We can change the halt_check
type to newly implemented flag "BRANCH_HALT_SKIP". Please update us with
your thoughts to change the flag to "BRANCH_HALT_SKIP".

Yes use HALT_SKIP please.

Thanks for confirming. I will do the changes in the next patch series.

Taniya has sent the patches for DFS support for QUP clocks.

I'll take a look.
