You mean struct clk.
As I said on our call on Thursday, everyone knows this, and it's something that has been worked on for the last year. Concensus had been reached and everyone had settled on a proposal, and just when we were almost ready to merge it, the concensus fell apart again.
As a result of that, a common struct clk has been delayed - it's not going to be in place for 2.6.40 (three months) but maybe we can reach concensus again for the .41 merge window.
As I also said, this issue was talked about in a session at the Linaro conference, and it will be interesting to hear what the result of that session was. At the moment, I'm entirely out of the loop on many things that were discussed there (except for a message from tglx.)
