  This patch documents following updates of the Exynos4 SoC camera subsystem
devicetree binding:

 - addition of #clock-cells and clock-output-names properties to 'camera'
   node - these are now needed so the image sensor sub-devices can reference
   clocks provided by the camera host interface,
 - dropped a note about required clock-frequency properties at the
   image sensor nodes; the sensor devices can now control their clock
   explicitly through the clk API and there is no need to require this
   property in the camera host interface binding.

Signed-off-by: Sylwester Nawrocki <s.nawrocki@samsung.com>

Changes since v7:
 - dropped a note about clock-frequency property in sensor nodes.

Changes since v6:
 - #clock-cells, clock-output-names documented as mandatory properties;
 - renamed "cam_mclk_{a,b}" to "cam_{a,b}_clkout in the example dts,
   this now matches changes in exynos4.dtsi further in the patch series;
 - marked "samsung,camclk-out" property as deprecated.

Changes since v5:
 - none.

Changes since v4:
 - dropped a requirement of specific order of values in clocks/
   clock-names properties (Mark) and reference to clock-names in
   clock-output-names property description (Mark).

Mark,

Could you please also review this patch? It is the only thing pending for
this 10 patches series to be merged.

Thank you!

While it was already the case, why is "samsung,fimc" also a simple bus?

If it has any properties which are required for the correct use of the
child nodes, it is _not_ a simple-bus.

And if we're adding more stuff required by child nodes it's definitely
not a simple-bus.

Get rid of simple-bus. Get the driver for "samsung,fimc" to probe its
children once it has set up.

Apologies for the late reply, and sorry to have to be negative on this.

Thanks,
Mark.

IIRC the main reason was to have children automatically instantiated
in Linux, also "samsung,fimc" is a master node gathering the all related
camera subsystem memory mapped IP blocks.

Then this can be considered a separate issue, and could be addressed
in a separate patch ?

While I agree with you that the "simple-bus" might not be a best idea,
I can't see how your suggestion could be now implemented in Linux, since
AFAIK there is no API like of_platform_unpopulate(), so device objects
can be removed upon the driver module removal.
