Subject: [PATCH v4] clk: expand clk_ignore_unused mechanism to keep only a
few clks on
Allow to pass an integer n that results in only keeping n unused clocks
enabled.
This helps to debug the problem if you only know that clk_ignore_unused
helps but you have no clue yet which clock is the culprit.

Fair request. I mentioned it there that you can assign an integer but
refer to Documentation/driver-api/clk.rst for the details.

Well no, that doesn't work for all the problems where
clk_ignore_unused=7 could be useful. Consider that e.g. you know that
eth0 is broken, but with clk_ignore_unused is works. So one of the (say)
25 nominally unused clks are required for eth0. But it's not possible to
test the network after each of the 25 clk_disable()s. Unless I'm missing
something and you can hook a userspace action on a trace line?!

I don't feel strong, but I think having that on two lines is easier to
read. So I kept it as is, but if you insist, I can change.

fixed.
