I'm rather resistant to this new flag approach, it looks like a hack. I don't seem to have better ideas to address the missing rate recalculation issue though. I thought about making the cpu clk notifier callback returning a specific error value, which would then trigger rate recalculation after __clk_notify() call in clk_change_rate() function. This way the trigger of the repeated rate recalculation would come from a notifier callback, rather than from a clock definition. But in general it would be difficult to handle multiple notification callbacks, each of which would attempt to trigger the rate recalculation. -- Regards, Sylwester -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-samsung-soc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
