This patch adds new clock-relationship rule to rsnd <-> platform. (sound clock should has relationship to sound drvier)
The external sound clocks (= clk_a/b/c/i) are "independent" clock in current linus/master. Then, all clk_get(dev, xxx) will be same clock (= module clock) (It was not strange if clk_get(dev, xxx) returns NULL though, but...)
# Above code can works well both common/legacy clock implementations. # And, it can't select both common/legacy clock in same time.
I will exchange git log comment (= about "new/old" clock), is it OK ?
OK, I'm hoping that this situation is not expected to last more than a kernel release or so until all the platforms are converted - can we have a comment explaining the issue giving an ETA in the code as well as in the changelog please?
