We don't have clock drivers upstream. I submitted them about a year
ago, they got naked, and I haven't got around to resubmititng them.

I have reworked them in our upcoming 4.10 tree. The device tree
currently looks like this. Note that I haven't sent this version of
the patches out for review, so it may change again.

syscon: syscon at 1e6e2000 {
        compatible = "aspeed,g5-scu", "syscon", "simple-mfd";
        reg = <0x1e6e2000 0x1a8>;

        #address-cells = <1>;
        #size-cells = <0>;

        clk_clkin: clk_clkin at 70 {
                #clock-cells = <0>;
                compatible = "aspeed,g5-clkin-clock";
                reg = <0x70>;
        };

        clk_hpll: clk_hpll at 24 {
                #clock-cells = <0>;
                compatible = "aspeed,g5-hpll-clock";
                reg = <0x24>;
                clocks = <&clk_clkin>;
        };

        clk_ahb: clk_ahb at 70 {
                #clock-cells = <0>;
                compatible = "aspeed,g5-ahb-clock";
                reg = <0x70>;
                clocks = <&clk_hpll>;
        };

        clk_apb: clk_apb at 08 {
                #clock-cells = <0>;
                compatible = "aspeed,g5-apb-clock";
                reg = <0x08>;
                clocks = <&clk_hpll>;
        };


We don't (yet) have anything in there for the D2PLL as Linux hasn't
needed to touch them.

I recently requested detailed clock documentation from Aspeed. I will
use this to add bindings for all of the clocks in the Aspeed SoC.

Cheers,

Joel
