Right, I've send an updated version of the patch.

I'm aware of the issues with Exynos542x, I've tested it with Odroid XU3, 
but I
really have no idea how to fix it. The reference manual (both for power 
domain
and mixer/hdmi modules) also doesn't provide any useful information for this
case.

The issue with power on/off sequence definitely IS related to clock 
configuration,
but we didn't figure out how to solve it in a generic way. This will be 
handled in
Exynos HDMI and mixer drivers anyway, so the DTS part (at least for 
Exynos4 SoC)
will not change.

We would really like to have HDMI support for Exynos4 merged, especially 
that the
first version of the HDMI patches was posted in v3.16 times and now we 
are close
to v3.20 -next merge window end...

Best regards
