Subject: Re: [PATCH v10 0/4] clk: meson: add a sub EMMC clock controller

Thanks a lot for providing a fixed and updated version of this serie.

After some chat with Jerome and Kevin, it seems the way the eMMC clock reuse
for NAND was designed nearly 4 years doesn't look accurate anymore.

Having a separate clk driver designed to replace the eMMC node when NAND is
used on the board seems over engineered.

Actually having the clock code you add in this serie _but_ directly in
the NAND looks far better, and more coherent since having Linux runtime
detection of eMMC vs NAND will never happen and even this serie required
some DT modification from the bootloader.

I'll let Jerome or Kevin add more details if they want, but I think you should resurrect
the work you pushed in [1] & [2] but:
- passing the eMMC clk registers as a third "reg" cell
- passing the same "clocks" phandle as the eMMC node
- adding the eMMC clock code in the NAND driver directly

I'm open to discussions if you consider the current approach is still superior.

Thanks,
Neil
