You mean "In general, assigned-clocks* do not need to be documented and should never be required."[1] and "Whatever clock setup needed is outside the scope of a binding"[2]? In this case, it's not generic, and not specific to "renesas,rz-rtca3", but related to the integration of RTC-A3 on the RZ/G3S SoC. Which is indeed not relevant for the RTC-A3 bindings, so I agree the assigned-clock* properties should not be part of this binding. At least they're present in the example in the bindings ;-) [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241015211540.GA1968867-robh@xxxxxxxxxx [2] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241015164609.GA1235530-robh@xxxxxxxxxx Gr{oetje,eeting}s, Geert -- Geert Uytterhoeven -- There's lots of Linux beyond ia32 -- geert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker.
