struct clk_ops::determine_rate() instead of the round_rate() one so that we can
remove the round_rate clk_op entirely. Brian has taken up that task which
nobody else has wanted to do for close to a decade. Thanks Brian! This is all
prerequisite work to get to the real task of improving the clk rate setting
process. Once we have determine_rate() used everywhere, we'll be able to do
things like chain the rate request structs in linked lists to order the rate
setting operations or add more parameters without having to change every clk
driver in existence. It's also nice to not have multiple ways to do something
which just causes confusion for clk driver authors. Overall I'm glad this is
getting done.
Beyond this change we also have a tweak to the clk_lookup() function in the
core framework to use hashing on the clk name instead of a clk tree walk with
string comparisons. We _still_ rely on the clk name to be unique, because
historically we've used globally unique strings to describe the clk tree
topology. This tree walk becomes increasingly slow as more clks are added to
the system. Searching from the roots for a duplicate is simple but pretty dumb
and it wastes boot time so we're using a hash table as an improvement. Ideally
we wouldn't rely on the strings to be unique at all, relegating them to simply
debug information, but that is future work that will likely require some sort
of Kconfig knob indicating strings aren't used for topology description.
Outside of the core framework changes we have the usual new SoC support and
fixes to clk drivers for things that were discovered once the clks were used by
consumer drivers. Nothing in particular is jumping out at me in the "misc"
pile, except maybe the Amlogic driver that has gone through a refactoring. That
series got a fix from testing in -next though so it seems likely that things
have been getting good test coverage for a couple weeks already.
