[PATCH RESEND] arm: dts: nxp: lpc: lpc32xx: drop 'clocks' form rtc
Posted by Javier Carrasco 1 year, 3 months ago
The RTC does not provide a controllable clock signal (it uses a fixed
32768 Hz crystal, the input clock of the SoC). Remove the 'clocks'
property to better describe the device and avoid errors when checking
the dts against the nxp,lpc3220-rtc binding.

This patch used to belong to a series that converted the affected RTC
into dtschema[1] (effectively moving it to trivial-rtc), and dropped
the signal clock as it uses a fixed 32768 Hz crystal.

The rest of that series was merged, but I did not get any feedback for
this one. I sent a little reminder ~2 months later that might have gone
unnoticed too, and as a few more months passed since then, I opted for a
resend with the single pending patch. It is of course not urgent, but
still relevant.

This dts change as well as a counterpart documentation change won't be
applied, since it breaks dtb/Linux ABI, unfortunately.
