+          - const: sophgo,cv18xx-saradc

I don't think the fallback here makes sense. If there's other devices
with a compatible programming model added later, we can fall back to the
cv1800b.


Ok I'll do that, I wasn't sure if it was a good practice to fallback on
another SoC specific compatible.

+      SARADC will use the presence of this clock to determine if the controller
+      needs to be explicitly clocked by it (Active domain) or if it is part of
+      the No-Die Domain, along with the RTC, which does not require explicit
+      clocking.

What does "explicit clocking" mean? Is it clocked directly (or via
dividers) by a clock on the board or another source?


It means that, if a clock is provided, the driver will work in "Active
Domain" and will use the clock generator of the SoC to get the right clock
signal.

However if no clock is provided, the controller will work in "No-Die" domain
(Always On) and use the RTCSYS subsystem to get its clock signal.

So it does have a clock, but provided by a different provider. I don't
really understand why that would "excuse" it from having a clocks
property, with the RTCSYS as the provider.

By digging into the datasheet, I discovered that there might be a way to use a valid clock as the input of the No-Die domain ADC. I would like to ask Inochi about this, as he wrote the clock driver for this SoC.

As I understand it, the SARADC working in the No-Die domain is fed, like every other IP in the No-Die domain, by the CLK_SRC_RTC_SYS_0. This clock source is either a division of the main oscillator (referred to as osc_parents in the clock driver) or "xtal," which is an external oscillator. Am I right? What is the role of CLK_RTC_24M?

If I'm correct, this description isn't needed anymore in the bindings, and the device tree node for the SARADC in the No-Die domain will need this line:

+                       clocks = <&clk CLK_SRC_RTC_SYS_0>;
