Hi Stephan,

Thanks for the review.

Yes firmware flags are using separate numberspace now. Firmware
maintains CCF and firmware specific flags separately but earlier
CLK_FRAC was mistakenly defined in ccf flagspace and hence handled here
for backward compatibility. Driver takes care of not registering same
with CCF. Let me know if I misunderstood.

Thanks,
