I understand what you mean but I am not sure this makes the code clearer and
useful. The driver in drivers/soc/mediatek will be a simple dummy implementation
of a "simple-mfd" device (a driver that simply matches with
"mediatek,mt8173-mmsys" and instantiates the "clk-mt8173-mm" and the
"mediatek-drm" driver (note that mediatek-mdp" is already instantiated via
device-tree).
It'd be nice had a proper device-tree with a "simple-mfd" for mmsys from the
beginning representing how really hardwware is, but I think that, change this
now, will break backward compatibility.
IMHO I think that considering the clk driver as entry point is fine, but this is
something that the clock maintainers should decide.
Also note that this is not only a MT8173 problem I am seeing the same problem on
all other Mediatek SoCs.
Thanks.
