That's news to me. I was thinking all the time that the reason for having some dtsi? files with -u-boot suffix was that these were exclusive for u-boot and the others were shared with linux. If now the content of .*-u-boot.dtsi? gets passed to linux too, I no longer know why we separate the files. Is this for Rockchip or ARM64 or a general rule for all of U-Boot? Should I (or someone) try to change documentation or is that already done? I thought I read something different few months ago ? Maybe I misunderstood... > So we can try option 1, output warning instead of error return for clock get > fail, since the clock > driver for kernel and u-boot are totally different. > Ok. I hope I find time to try that some day. Thanks for looking at the patch.
