Well, sorry, but I don't think I can share this.

1. it touches two areas - arch/ and drivers/ which isnÄt a good thing and 
   should be avoided wherever possible
2. it addresses several problems: (a) missing name for "ahb" camera clock, 
   (b) wrong device and connection names for emma clocks, (c) missing 
   _(un)prepare suffixes in clock API
3. it makes a possibly broken i.MX25 even more broken

IIUC, mx2-camera is broken on i.MX27 in current next because of wrong 
clock entries, right? So, we don't have to be bothered not to break 
bisection - it is already broken. Then we can clean up the problems 
separately under arch/ and drivers/.

So, would it be possible to split this into 3 parts:

(a) arch - fix clocks
(b) media - fix clocks on i.MX27 _without_ breaking it even further on 
    i.MX25. If we think i.MX25 support is already broken, let's schedule 
    its removal and remove properly, or add BROKEN to Kconfig, when built 
    on i.MX25. In your patch this would mean just adding an "else" to your 
    "if (cpu_is_mx27())" statement and moving the current clk_get() there
(c) add _(un)prepare.

Since these are fixes, I won't wait too long for these. If you don't 
resubmit them today, they'll go in after 3.6-rc1.

Thanks
