[PATCH 1/5] remoteproc: imx_rproc: Simplify clock enable logic using dcfg flags
Posted by Peng Fan 1 week, 6 days ago
Simplify the clock enable logic by removing the dedicated
imx_rproc_clk_enable() function and integrate the clock handling directly
into the probe function to simplify the code.

Add a new IMX_RPROC_NEED_CLKS flag in dcfg to indicate whether clock
management is required for a given SoC. Update probe logic to conditionally
enable clocks based on the new flag.

Set the flag for applicable SoCs (e.g., i.MX7D, i.MX8MQ, i.MX93, etc.).

No functional changes.

I see that you negate the comment from imx_rproc_clk_enable but with
the negation
OR becomes AND.

So, the comment should be:

/* Handle clocks when remote core is under control of Linux AND the
clocks are not managed by remote side  FW */

Also, do we really need this flag?
Shouldn't we just make a decision based on the fact that clk is in the
device tree or not?
