Yup is badly needed. Right now we have strange hidden dependencies in multiple subsystems to enable a single device driver: 1. Add a clock alias for a device 2. Add hwmod entries for a device 3. Add dts entries for a device 4. Add a device driver We really should only need steps 3 and 4 to do that, hopefully this takes out #1 on the list above. Regards, Tony
