Subject: Re: [PATCH 00/19] clk: amlogic: Add PLLs and peripheral clocks for A4
 and A5 SoCs

Hi Jerome,

     Thanks for your review, because the national day holidays did not
timely feedback.

Sorry for the inconvenience caused. The main changes compared to the
previous version by Xianwei are in the driver part.

The dt-bindings part only has minor modifications in [PATCH 14/19].

The driver part has relatively larger changes because it needs to be
based on the code base you previously submitted.

I'm not sure if I understood you correctly.

Do you mean that I should split this series of 19 patches into multiple
patch series and send them separately? For example:
serie 1: A4 SCMI clock controller (dt-bindings)
serie 2: A4 PLL clock controller (dt-bindings, driver, dts)
serie 3: A4 peripherals clock controller (dt-bindings, driver, dts)
... A5 similarly?
