    Subject[PATCH 0/9] Rewrite clk parent handling
    Date
    There are a couple problems with clk parent handling in the common clk
    framework. This patch series combines a few different topics together as
    all this code is closely related.

    First off, we don't do well at determining parents of clks at clk
    registration time because the return type of the clk_ops::get_parent()
    op is a u8 which isn't expressive enough to cover all our use-cases.

    Secondly, we use strings for all parent-child linkages, and this leads
    to poorly written code that extracts clk names from struct clk pointers
    and makes clk provider drivers use clk consumer APIs.

    Thirdly, clkdev.c has a collection of DT parsing logic in it that is
    only used when the common clk framework is present but we want to use
    that same logic for describing parent-child linkages of clk providers
    via in DT. This should all be moved into the common clk framework and
    used from there as well as from clkdev.c, so this series changes the way
    clkdev interacts with the clk framework by having clkdev get clk_hw
    pointers out of DT clk specifiers and then convert those into clk
    pointers with clk_hw_create_clk(). Splitting the API this way lets us
    get clk_hw pointers for clk providers and skip the struct clk pointer
    creation phase that we don't need to do when describing parent-child
    linkages.

    And finally, we have a few patches in here that lay the groundwork for
    supporting device links in the common clk framework. We do that by
    pushing the consuming device pointer through to the clk pointer creation
    in clk_hw_create_clk(). This wasn't always easy to do when we had
    __clk_create_clk() called from multiple places, some being deep in the
    clk registration path. This series simplifies that logic so that we can
    always attach a consumer device to a clk that we create in one place,
    instead of making that linkage in multiple places near where we create
    struct clk pointers.

    Miquel Raynal (1):
    clk: core: clarify the check for runtime PM

    Stephen Boyd (8):
    clk: Combine __clk_get() and __clk_create_clk()
    clk: Introduce get_parent_hw clk op
    clk: Introduce of_clk_get_hw_from_clkspec()
    clk: Inform the core about consumer devices
    clk: Move of_clk_*() APIs into clk.c from clkdev.c
    clk: Allow parents to be specified without string names
    clk: qcom: gcc-sdm845: Migrate to DT parent mapping
    arm64: dts: qcom: Specify XO clk as input to GCC node
