Subject: [PATCH v2 16/20] media: venus: pm_helpers: Simplify vcodec clock handling
Date: Fri, 09 Feb 2024 22:10:00 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230911-topic-mars-v2-16-3dac84b88c4b@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230911-topic-mars-v2-0-3dac84b88c4b@linaro.org>
Currently the infrastructure is set up for vast expandability, but
it's far too complex for what is just 0-2 clocks. Categorize the
clocks and simplify their getting.
One notable change is that vcodec clocks are switched to use
devm_clk_get_optional, which will let us commonize the code further
while leaving the burden of figuring out which SoCs need codec-specific
clocks and which don't to the bindings checker.
