Here is the k230 clock driver based on Linux-6.6:
https://github.com/ruyisdk/linux-xuantie-kernel/commit/196242fd9b9b4a191dab0c7c3c5bf851ed857d8d

pinctrl:
https://github.com/ruyisdk/linux-xuantie-kernel/commit/baf26b6622c9de2ff64a6ed58eeeb98c8b2c828b

No reset driver.

Most of the k230 drivers are under Linux-5.10, and we are porting them
into the newest version of Linux, which takes time.

So, if the clock & punctual drivers mentioned above could satisfy the
minimum requirements for the platforms, we will update the version of
this series as a supplement.

Is that okay?
