Hi Geert,

thanks for this, first of all.

I was a bit off the keyboard so the delay in my answer.

I will get back at this SCMI/Clocks/Quirks matters in the next few weeks
targeting next rc1-ish...

In a nutshell I was thinking to proceed roughly as follows:

 - respinning a V3 of my original Clock Rates series WITH the addtion
   of your previous fixes series on top (or merged into) BUT DROPPING
   from my original series the patch that triggered a lot of FW panics
   in the wild due to out of spec FWs. (Harden Clock protocol initialization)

 - spinning another NEW series on top of this 'Miscellaneous improvement'
   series of yours, since I want to add, on top of this rework of yours, the
   capability for the Quirk framework to match the same quirk definition
   (static key) against multiple vendors/subvendors/impl....since, as you may
   have noticed :P, I broke a number of boards recently with just one fix
   kernel side BUT all of these issues can be really quirked using some
   common identical quirk snippet to match against all the needed vendors
   (rockchip/nxp/renesas as of now)
   
   ...I have some ugly working hack with which I am experimenting on this
   quirk matching evolution...

   On top of all of this I would then reapply the FW-breaking fix AND all
   the quirks we determine as needed (possibly N matching M vendoes) and
   test as much as possible pushing into for-next...

Then we'll see what Sudeep thinks about all of this, of course.

Thoughts ? Any feedback welcome.

Thanks,
Cristian
