Thanks.
But, I have 1 issue on [devm_]clk_get().
It can't select device_node on [devm_]clk_get(), it uses dev->of_node directly.
struct clk *clk_get(struct device *dev, const char *con_id)
{
...
if (dev) {
clk = __of_clk_get_by_name(dev->of_node, dev_id, con_id);
~~~~~~~~~~~~
...
}
}
I would like to select specific device_node.
sound_soc {
...
cpu {
...
=> clocks = <&xxx>;
};
codec {
...
=> clocks = <&xxx>;
};
};
But, of_clk_get_by_name() / of_clk_get() doesn't have devm_xxx version
