Hi Samuel,

I'm working on the clock driver for Spacemit K1.

The vendor missed the register definition of APBC_TWSIx_CLK_RST in the
documentation. There'll be an update soon.

Thanks for pointing this out. Indeeded, the v2 of clock driver is
missing some bus clocks. I'm fixing them and working for a v3.

As for the I2C controller, I've confirmed with the vendor that both bus
and function clocks are required for normal operation. This applies for
all I2C controllers on the SoC, regardless of the region it belongs to
(RCPU/APBC).
