Given that aspeed is a SoC vendor, and you already have multiple clk drivers, I think at this point your best bet is to do what the other SoC vendors currently do. I think you should: - Create a new subdirectory drivers/clk/aspeed/ - Move the existing aspeed clk drivers into this subdirectory, and update the Makefiles / Kconfigs as appropriate. - Add a new entry to the MAINTAINERS file for the aspeed clk drivers. You probably also want to have that entry cover the reset driver, and any other aspeed-specific drivers as well. - Post that patch set. Include this new clk driver as a separate patch in that series. Feel free to CC me to the series and I'll review it for you. - After it's reviewed, wait a week or two, and send Stephen a 'GIT PULL' using git request-pull. I can help you with the workflow if needed. One important detail is that you want to base your branch for the GIT PULL on the lowest common denominator, which is usually the latest rc1 from Linus. So even if Linus is at rc5, try to base yours on rc1, unless there's some issue, and you need to document why. Stephen should get the merge to newer rcX branches from Linus, and not you. When you send a PULL to Stephen, you can use 'b4 am' to assemble the contents of your branch. When I sent him a PULL a few months ago, I included the b4 commands that I used. https://lore.kernel.org/all/aL8MXYrR5uoBa4cB@x1/ If he accepts the pull, you'll still need to post your patches to the clk mailinglist, and have them reviewed on list. Folks from aspeed should do that review publicly on the list. Brian
