clk: add DT clock binding support
Based on work 1st by Ben Herrenschmidt and Jeremy Kerr, then by Grant
Likely, this patch adds support to clk_get to allow drivers to retrieve
clock data from the device tree.
Platforms scan for clocks in DT with of_clk_init and a match table, and
the register a provider through of_clk_add_provider. The provider's
clk_src_get function will be called when a device references the
provider's OF node for a clock reference.
v6 (Rob Herring):
- Return error values instead of NULL to match clock framework
expectations
v5 (Rob Herring):
- Move from drivers/of into common clock subsystem
- Squashed "dt/clock: add a simple provider get function" and
"dt/clock: add function to get parent clock name"
- Rebase to 3.4-rc1
- Drop CONFIG_OF_CLOCK and just use CONFIG_OF
- Add missing EXPORT_SYMBOL to various functions
- s/clock-output-name/clock-output-names/
- Define that fixed-clock binding is a single output
v4 (Rob Herring):
- Rework for common clk subsystem
- Add of_clk_get_parent_name function
v3: - Clarified documentation
v2: - fixed errant ';' causing compile error
- Editorial fixes from Shawn Guo
- merged in adding lookup to clkdev
- changed property names to match established convention. After
working with the binding a bit it really made more sense to follow the
lead of 'reg', 'gpios' and 'interrupts' by making the input simply
'clocks' & 'clock-names' instead of 'clock-input-*', and to only use
clock-output* for the producer nodes. (Sorry Shawn, this will mean
you need to change some code, but it should be trivial)
- Add ability to inherit clocks from parent nodes by using an empty
'clock-ranges' property. Useful for busses. I could use some feedback
on the new property name, 'clock-ranges' doesn't feel right to me.
