I don't want to discourage a vendor that's clearly doing a good job of working on things before they've even taped things out, which is why I suggested sending clocks/pinctrl as RFC until things are finalised. I'm not sure what a good way to mention this in the bindings would be, particularly for clock/pinctrl definitions where things could change "behind the back" of a user - I'm thinking things like U-Boot here. --oW1W+eroT4GxNUCm Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEABYIAB0WIQRh246EGq/8RLhDjO14tDGHoIJi0gUCZdZRXAAKCRB4tDGHoIJi 0pHsAPsEyp2tYcjX2nSqPkPh9K+5WEkawzPSKZ3xZfBdBTNjeAEA2DQTPxP4sxi5 G4gYhkpSkY1LV81h9yz8W2TnAykKewY= =Lo+3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --oW1W+eroT4GxNUCm-- --===============8550437319104043834== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ linux-riscv mailing list linux-riscv@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-riscv --===============8550437319104043834==--
