I'm in the process of finalizing the pull requests for 5.16, this came
up since you
have soc at kernel.org on Cc, but it looks like you don't have an Ack for the
clock driver, and I have not heard from Shawn or Sasha about whether they
want to pick it up in a separate branch or I should pick it up.

I suggest we leave it for this time then, let's plan for 5.18 instead.
