ok.

Documentation helps simplify the understanding of expected usage - this 
is useful to review approach as well :)

CLK_OF_DECLARE will take care of having all required clks registered 
of_clk_init(NULL); will pick up from that list.

that will remove all extra exports, and make clk.c redundant.

OK - without the ordering of patches, it was not obvious. structures aside,

We should move the functions to this file instead and empty out 
mach-omap2 gradually, omap_dpll.h should be exported and used by 
mach-omap2, rather than the other way around.

thanks. we should keep unneeded stuff in static unless a specific 
provable need really arises.

use checkpatch with --strict option

ok.

we should make this independent of mach-omap2. calls should be made to 
here if needed from mach-omap2 instead of the other way around. OR the 
required code should be moved over here.

you can definitely ensure this driver is clean :)

in general, helping dts writers know of invalid/out of range parameters 
with a log message helps ensure those are fixed either on development or 
at some point - it aids debug instead of others having to scratch heads 
wondering what happened.

if mandatory parameters are verifable at setup and decided as bad, 
refusing to register is good idea especially with logs, they tend to get 
fixed rather faster - than an error that pops up when a specific DPLL is 
used at a later point in time.

just my 2 cents.

As discussed offline, doing the other way around and doing what all 
other platforms do (which is CLK_OF_DECLARE) is a better idea to ensure 
standard APIs are carried forward and not spin off OMAP as a "special 
platform" - at least I dont seem to see any good reasoning for it yet.
