I've just pinged Mike Turquette and have CC'ed you. As explained in the cover letter, the problem comes from the fact that the meaning of the DT "clocks" property depends on whether the property is located in a clock provider node or a clock consumer node. Let's discuss the issue in the other mail thread. -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart
