Renesas R8A77970 CPG/MSSR clock support

Hello!

Here's the set of 2 patches against the 'clk-next' branch of CLK group's
'linux.git' repo. As the DT patches in the R8A77970/Eagle board support series depend on the patch #1 of this series, it might make sense to merge this patch to the 'renesas.git' repo as well...

[1/2] dt-bindings: clock: add R8A77970 CPG core clock definitions [2/2] clk: renesas: cpg-mssr: add R8A77970 support

MBR, Sergei

Hi Sergei,

Thank you, looks good!

The modern way to avoid this dependency is to use hardcoded numbers in the initial submission of the DTS, cfr.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/horms/renesas.git/commit/?h=arm64-dt-for-v4.15&id=d917e0b24811eadeba419ba7318b967ee15933b3

After the definitions have hit upstream, you can replace the hardcoded numbers by symbols, cfr.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/geert/renesas-drivers.git/commit/?h=topic/r8a77995-integration&id=d3f6987db28a4657bf3304eeeb8e2cd8dd510ad0

So I don't think Simon will merge the core clock definitions patch, unless you plan to submit a full DTS describing the whole SoC in the initial submissiong.

Thanks, I would prefer if the DT patches followed the scheme described by Geert such that they do not depend on any part of this series. I expect that will allow the smoothest path for acceptance of those patches.
