Yes.

How about keeping patch 2 but enabling/disabling the periph clk
in imx_pwm_config() instead of completely dropping the enable/disable
clk sequence.

In patch 7 you just add the logic we talked about earlier:
unconditionally enable the periph clk when entering the
imx_pwm_apply_v2() function and disable it before leaving the function.

This way you can preserve bisectibility and still get rid of the ipg
clk.

Stefan, what's your opinion?

Boris
