This is a continuation of patch #2 ("clk: divider: Switch from
.round_rate to .determine_rate by default", [0]) from my other series:
"clk: meson: rounding for fast clocks on 32-bit SoCs" [1]

That patch caused NULL dereferences in various drivers which are still
accessing clk_divider_ops.round_rate directly (which got removed in the
mentioned patch).

Guenter Roeck found this issue first on Freescale i.MX6 Ultralite and
reported it here: [2]
Later on Marek Szyprowski reported that BCM2835 is also affected: [3]

With this improved version of the patch I am taking a more definsive
approach as suggested by Stephen Boyd. Instead of dropping
clk_divider_ops.round_rate we're now keeping it and adding
clk_divider_ops.determine_rate. CCF core already prefers
.determine_rate over .round_rate so the new implementation is used by
default.

To simplify the transition to .determine_rate in the future this
updated series now has five extra patches to port over the drivers
which used clk_divider_ops.round_rate over to
clk_divider_ops.determine_rate.

I have compile-tested all patches. Additionally the imx patch is
runtime-tested using Guenter Roeck's suggestion (thanks!):
$ qemu-system-arm -M mcimx6ul-evk -m 512M -kernel arch/arm/boot/zImage -dtb arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6ul-14x14-evk.dtb -append "console=ttymxc0 loglevel=8 earlycon earlyprintk" -monitor stdio

This series is based on clk-next commit 783d08bd02f5d3 ("Revert "clk:
divider: Switch from .round_rate to .determine_rate by default"clk-next").
My suggestion is to let all patches go through clk-next (instead of
individual driver trees) as the first patch in this series is a pre-
condition for the other ones.

Abel has already picked this patch (thanks!)

Can you please take the rest of the series (that is: patch 1 and patches 3-6)?
I can also re-send them if you prefer that.

Best regards,
Martin

No need to resend. I can pick them up.
