Or are we talking about comparing struct clk pointers? From what I can tell this code is now broken because we made all clk getting functions (there's quite a few...) return unique pointers every time they're called. It seems that the driver wants to know if extclk and clk are the same so it can do something differently in kirkwood_set_rate(). Do we need some sort of clk_equal(struct clk *a, struct clk *b) function for drivers like this? Also, even on DT this could fail if the DT author made internal and extclk map to the same clock provider and cell. -- Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. is a member of Code Aurora Forum, a Linux Foundation Collaborative Project -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
