Ye, hopefully they go via clk. Stephen replied to v1 or 2 so
I figure they're in his queue :)

Ye, I do know about those. I meant to try deleting the clocks
property but didn't get a chance, just been busy. It's not
related to this series nor does it matter if it makes it prior
to 5.18 so I was going to submit it on its own.
The other is in my list-of-things-to-ask-Rob/Krzk-when-I-know-
for-sure-what-my-question-actually-is...

Thanks,
Conor.
