I assume you meant adding the notes to the SP805 driver where the clock 
is used.

If so, I think that makes sense. That notes deserves its own patch 
because it really has nothing to do with any of the change in this patch 
series.

Do you want me to 1) embed that patch into this patch series and send 
out v5; or 2) leave the patch series as it is and send out a separate 
patch to add the notes to the driver?

Thanks.
