This is something I've been meaning to do for a while but only just got around
to. The CCF has been quite unwieldy in a few ways:
* It is very rigid, and there are not easy ways to hook into it without
rewriting many things. See e.g. things like the bypass clock and all the _half
clocks which were created because CCF didn't support the dividers used on the
k210. While preparing this series, I encountered several edge cases which I
had initially overlooked (or which were not supported in the initial release).
These would have been very difficult to fix with CCF, but were much easier to
address because each funcion is implemented in one place.
* There is a lot of magic going on under the curtains because of all the CCF
code which lives in many different files. Some things live in drivers, but
many things live in e.g. clk-uclass.c. So many things live in so many files
and it can be very difficult to get a handle on what exactly happens.
Complicating this is that there is a conflation of struct clk as a handle and
struct clk as a device. In this regard, refcounting is completely broken. IMO
we should just do away with refcounts and only disable clocks when explicitly
asked for.
* It is very dependent on runtime initialization. Typically, everything is
initialized by calling into various register() functions, usually with several
wrappers to avoid specifying all the arguments. This balloons the runtime
memory usage since there are so many devices created. It also makes it hard to
debug, since if you do it the "typical" way it is easy to accidentally assign
a clock to the wrong register.
* It inflates code size by pulling in not just some dead code (e.g. this driver
does not use divider tables but they are in clk-divider anyway) but also
pulling in numerous imx-specific clocks. This could be fixed, but I don't want
to due to the other reasons listed.
I am very happy to have completely excised it from my driver. IMO there should
be big warning signs on the CCF warning not to use it for new code. This would
hopefully dissuade those like myself who had no idea that CCF was *not* in fact
a good way to write a clock driver.
Overall there is a total savings of 12k from this series.

Changes in v2:
- Convert stage to enum
- Only force probe clocks pre-reloc
- Rebase on u-boot/master
Sean Anderson (11):
clk: Allow force setting clock defaults before relocation
clk: k210: Rewrite to remove CCF
clk: k210: Move pll into the rest of the driver
clk: k210: Implement soc_clk_dump
clk: k210: Re-add support for setting rate
clk: k210: Don't set PLL rates if we are already at the correct rate
clk: k210: Remove bypass driver
clk: k210: Move k210 clock out of its own subdirectory
k210: dts: Set PLL1 to the same rate as PLL0
k210: Don't imply CCF
test: Add K210 PLL tests to sandbox defconfigs
