Hi Robert,

I'm truly sorry for the trouble the patch has caused you and for my late
reply!

Great catch! At first glance, it seems to me that calling
clk_hw_set_rate_range() in sunxi_ccu_probe() should not have happenend
in the loop that iterates over the hw_clks.

Instead we should add one more loop that iterates over the ccu_clks.
Note, that there is already one such loop but, unfortunately, we can't
use that as it happens before the hw_clks loop and we can only call
clk_hw_set_rate_range() after the hw_clk has been registered.

Hence, I propose to move the offending code to a new loop:
	for (i = 0; i < desc->num_ccu_clks; i++) {
		struct ccu_common *cclk = desc->ccu_clks[i];

		if (!cclk)
			continue;

		if (cclk->max_rate)
			clk_hw_set_rate_range(&cclk->hw, common->min_rate,
					      common->max_rate);
		else
			WARN(cclk->min_rate,
			     "No max_rate, ignoring min_rate of clock %d - %s\n",
			     i, cclk->hw.init->name);
	}

I haven't tested (or even compiled) the above, but I'll test and send a
patch within the next few days for you to test.

Thanks again,
  Frank
