So you mean that RTC register +0x160 controls the system HOSC clock,
so the main input clock for all the PLLs and other clocks? And by
clearing bit 1 in there we can stop this?

And if that is the case, do you suggest that we should model this in
the DT, so that the fixed-clock "<&osc24M>" should be replaced with
"<&rtc 3>"?

So from a "the DT describes the hardware" point of view that would
probably the right way, but not sure if Linux is happy about that. At
the very least that would mean to extend the RTC driver to export a
fourth clock, and all devices would now depend on the RTC (also for
probing!). And Linux can realistically never turn that clock off
anyway (without grinding to a halt), so this register is more useful
for ARISC firmware?

So I am somewhat undecided: changing this for the H6 would make newer
DTs unusable on older kernels, without anything we really gain. When
we really want this, we should indeed use the opportunity to
introduce this at least for the H616 from day one, to avoid this
situation here.
But this requires more changes than just the binding, doesn't it?

Cheers,
Andre
