"phys" is typically used for physical addresses. I couldn't immediately
related this to physical address when I looked at this variable outside
of this file.
Also, physical addresses should be of type phys_addr_t.

Wondering what num is for? May be it will be clear once you document the
complete structure as Linus suggested.

Why is this called "fixed". Isn't this the pre-divider value that user
can configure? Also, shouldn't there be a post-divider value that you
need as well.

'm' in pllm stands for multiplier. So, instead of calling it
"pllm_multiplier", call it "pllm_val" instead?
Sorry about late comments on this, looks like I missed looking at this
structure altogether yesterday and had to go back to this only when I
tried understanding whats going on in 4/13
Thanks,
