I rechecked on OMAP3 (zoom2, zoom3) and OMAP4 (blaze), and
functionality hasn't changed with the hwmod support + Kevin's mbox
test.
On OMAP3, although functionality is ok with this patch set, I noticed
that the interface clock is not being disabled with its corresponding
pm_runtime_disable call. Previously, the driver enabled/disabled the
ick clock on demand, but now the clock stays enabled always (only
affected by the smart-idle feature, I presume).
Should this clock be placed in the main_clk field of omap_hwmod struct
instead of omap_hwmod_ocp_if, I moved it to ocp_if because of the ick
thing, any comment?
Regards,
Omar
