Actually, a quick question before I do: If it's better/faster to prepare the clock and keep it prepared while you do clk_enable/clk_disable, why don't we do that in all drivers? Why do we bother to prepare/unprepare each time if all it does is take up cycles? -- Lee Jones Linaro ST-Ericsson Landing Team Lead Linaro.org ?
