Re: [RFC PATCH v1 3/9] clk: renesas: add R906G032 driver

Hi Sean,

I finally got around to posting v3 of this patch series. I wanted to
touch on a few issues you had mentioned in previous review.

So I ended up doing as you suggested: keeping the values in the
tables, in case they are needed in the future, but omitting them from
the structure to save space.

This could result in the chosen clock rate being higher than what was
requested. And in turn that could result in violating the spec of a
hardware device.

So I have kept the original logic here.
