Hi Yoshii-san,

Thanks for your patch. I'm sure there is a reason behind this, but I'm
trying to understand why you need this modification. It looks to me
like you're trying to enable COMMON_CLK on ARCH_SHMOBILE but in my
mind it is enough to only enable COMMON_CLK in the case of
ARCH_SHMOBILE_MULTI.

During my test using ARCH_SHMOBILE_MULTI on KZM9D I omitted this patch
and only used patch 1, 2, 4, 5, and a modified 6 from your series.
This worked just fine, but I may be missing something.

Let me know if you really want to keep this patch or not. If it's not
needed for MULTIPLATFORM then I suggest that we just drop it.

Cheers,

/ magnus
