Hi Mark, thanks for taking a look at this.

It's true core-clock exist only so the register can be mapped.

apb-clock is part of a patch set that will add new device tree files for the
MOXA ART SoC, but it's not in mainline:

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2013-July/181757.html

apb-clock could be a fixed rate 48MHz DT only clock, but because we can't
be sure it's 48MHz on all platforms, reading it from a register with core-clock
is more portable.


Best regards,
Jonas
