Hello,
patch #1 adds a new function devm_clk_rate_exclusive_get() that
simplifies usage of clk_rate_exclusive_get() in probe functions.
One downside is that a caller of clk_rate_exclusive_get() doesn't need
to check the return value, devm_clk_rate_exclusive_get() can fail
however. So to benefit from the new function you usually need to add a
check for devm_clk_rate_exclusive_get() failing in return to simplifying
error paths in .probe() and .remove().
Patch #2 shows an example conversion. Note that without
devm_clk_rate_exclusive_get() the pwm-xilinx driver cannot benefit from
devm_pwmchip_add().
This series bases on
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-clk/cover.1702400947.git.u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de/T/#t
. That's not a "hard" dependency, it can easily be rebased to next.
There is only a trivial context conflict in include/linux/clk.h.
Regarding how to merge this: I suggest to take patch #1 via clk. When
this is merged I will take care for the pwm-xilinx driver (and others
that might benefit).
Best regards
Uwe
