Current ath79 clock.c code does not read ref clock from devicetree!
So you can set any clock rate value in board DTS but it will has no effect
on the real clk calculation.
A more reasonable solution is used for CI20 board.
In arch/mips/boot/dts/ingenic/jz4780.dtsi we have
ext: ext {
compatible = "fixed-clock";
#clock-cells = <0>;
};
...
cgu: jz4780-cgu@10000000 {
compatible = "ingenic,jz4780-cgu";
reg = <0x10000000 0x100>;
clocks = <&ext>, <&rtc>;
clock-names = "ext", "rtc";
#clock-cells = <1>;
};
In arch/mips/boot/dts/ingenic/ci20.dts we have
&ext {
clock-frequency = <48000000>;
};
At last drivers/clk/ingenic/jz4780-cgu.c registers this "ext" clock
as a parent of most other subordianate clocks. So there is no magic
frequency constants in drivers/clk/ingenic!
In arch/mips/ath79/clocks.c we have a very different situation:
the reference clock frequences are already hardcoded in C-code so there is
no need to mention them in devicetree files.
