That makes sense, and it's doable as long as we're not duplicating clk-pll's code
to clk-pll-fh and also as long as we're hardcoding the availability of FHCTL in the
SoC-specific clock drivers like I explained in the PLL macro from the previous
example. Let's go!

I'm not sure if we're saying the very same thing here, but for the sake of being
clear and avoiding any misunderstanding, here's my description.


We should call both functions: register_pllfhs() for the PLLs that have support for
freqhopping, register_plls() for the ones that *do not support* freqhopping.

Example for PLL_A, PLL_B, PLL_C, PLL_D:

Freqhopping supported (enabled or not): PLL_A, PLL_B
Freqhopping NOT supported at all: PLL_C, PLL_D

fhplls_data[] = { PLL_A, PLL_B };
plls_data[] = { PLL_C, PLL_D };

func mtk_clk_register_pllfhs(fhdata)
	walk through fhplls_data only, other plls are not passed to this function

func clk_mt8186_apmixed_probe()
	/* Some PLLs must be controlled directly via MMIO, while others
	 * support Frequency Hopping through FHCTL.
	 * Where FHCTL is supported, register clock with register_pllfhs.
	 * PLLs that are not supported by FHCTL: register with register_plls.
	 */

	/* Register FHCTL PLLs */
	fhctl_parse_dt()
	mtk_clk_register_pllfhs(array of plls supporting pllfh)

	/* Register the PLLs that do not support FHCTL at all */
	mtk_clk_register_plls(all the other PLLs that cannot be FHCTL-controlled)

Overall, this seems to look good, minor one nit: if FHCTL is *not supported* on
a PLL, we should *not* even call mtk_clk_register_pllfhs on that PLL, so your
pseudocode would be just:

		if (fhctl_is_enabled(pll))

> 			init.ops = &mtk_pll_fhctl_ops;

> 	/* APIs of FHCTL HW operations */
> 	func fhctl_hw_init()
> 	func fhctl_hopping()
> 	func fhctl_ssc_enable()
> 
> 

So it seems that we've reached an agreement here, this was a nice planning
discussion; we should now have a nice and solid base to work on, which is
great.

Cheers,
Angelo
