Hello Yadwinder,

Thanks a lot for your feedback.

Yeah, I did implement it but seems I was sleepy when I posted the series since I
managed to completely screw up the patch-set... More on that below.

Instead of squashing the delta in this patch I did on "[PATCH v4 05/14] clk: Add
generic driver for Maxim PMIC clocks" [0] so you can look the
max_gen_recalc_rate() on that patch.

I made the same mistake when squashing the mfd changes into the patch adding the
regulator driver [1] :-(

Sorry for the mess... I'll fix that for the next version.

Perfect, I'll do it on the next version.

Even though Documentation/devicetree/bindings/clock/clock-bindings.txt says that
the "clock-output-names" property is optional I agree with you that will be
better to support it. So I'll add it on the next version as well.
