Hi Phillip,

This is not a full review of this patchset. I just want to point you
that you should keep supporting existing DT files.

Please don't break backward compatibility with old DT files. In this
specific case, it seems simple enough to be backward-compatible.

Keep those to definitions...

And here, instead of returning an error, if the property can't be read, 
it means it is an older DT file. Just default to SUNXI_IR_BASE_CLK. 
This will make it backward-compatible with old DT files that don't have
such property.

Mauro
