AIUI, the clk_prepare patch is certainly a requirement for Tegra's conversion to common clock; I believe that a clk_enable() without a preceding clk_prepare() will fail since it's an invalid call sequence. I'm not 100% sure yet, but I hope Prashant will post patches to convert Tegra to common clock in time for 3.6, so having all the driver clk_prepare in a branch prior to the common clock conversion is required. >>> Wolfram, perhaps we should put these 4 patches and Prashan'ts >>> into their own topic branch so that you can merge it into the >>> I2C tree, and I can merge it into the Tegra tree too?

Yes, Laxman's changes should be able to go through I2C without a problem. We can try this out without any cross-merged topic branches and try resolving in arm-soc for now. If there turns out to be an issue, we can always rebase the Tegra and/or I2C for-next branches to fix it up. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
