The patch is used to add a choice for GPT clock source to provide high frequency clock.  The configuration "CONFIG_MXC_GPT_HCLK" is not dependent on the chip version. Even it is i.MX28, it is ok to set the configuration.

The implementation has handled the differences between the chips.
Most of i.MX6 series supports to use 24Mhz OSC as its high clock source (except MX6Q/D Rev 1.0 and MX6SL).  So for i.MX6, the implementation uses the 24Mhz OSC.
For others (the time.c only compiles for i.MX5 and i.MX6, so the other is i.MX5),  they don't have 24Mhz OSC source for GPT. When the configuration is set, we use perclk instead.

I feel the patch subject need to modify, like "add HCLK clock source for GPT", then people may not confuse.

As explained above, the implementation has handled the differences. Users does not need to care the revision. For example, when the image runs on a  MX6Q/D Rev 1.0 chip, the perclk will be selected not the 24Mhz OSC.

Only i.MX5 and i.MX6 uses the GPT driver. I think the CONFIG_MXC_GPT_HCLK can be set in any case.

I met a email problem last Friday. I can't get any email from u-boot at lists.denx.de for a long time. So I mistakenly thought
the first patches are failed and send out second.

Will fix this.

This actually is another topic, not relate with this patch much.  It is a good suggestion to reduce the #ifdef. But i think it need more work to do.
