By default if bus clock has no users its "enable count" value is 0. It
might be actually running if it's already enabled in bootloader, but
then in some cases it can be disabled by mistake. For example, such case
was observed when dw_mci_probe() enabled bus clock, then failed to do
something and disabled that bus clock on error path. After that even
attempt to read the 'clk_summary' file in DebugFS freezed forever, as
CMU bus clock ended up being disabled and it wasn't possible to access
CMU registers anymore.

To avoid such cases, CMU driver must increment the ref count for that
bus clock by running clk_prepare_enable(). There is already existing
'.clk_name' field in struct samsung_cmu_info, exactly for that reason.
It was added in commit 523d3de41f02 ("clk: samsung: exynos5433: Add
support for runtime PM"). But the clock is actually enabled only in
Exynos5433 clock driver. Let's mimic what is done there in generic
samsung_cmu_register_one() function, so other drivers can benefit from
that `.clk_name' field. As was described above, it might be helpful not
only for PM reasons, but also to prevent possible erroneous clock gating
on error paths.

Another way to workaround that issue would be to use CLOCK_IS_CRITICAL
flag for corresponding gate clocks. But that might be not very good
design decision, as we might still want to disable that bus clock, e.g.
on PM suspend.

Solving this problem in generic way makes sense but your solution is
insufficient. You skipped suspend/resume paths and in such case you
should remove the Exynos5433-specific code.

I would suggest to implement runtime PM ops in your driver instead, even though
those would initially only contain single clk enable/disable. Things like 
the clk_summary will work then thanks to runtime PM support in the clk core 
(see clk_pm_runtime_* calls).
We could also make common runtime PM suspend/resume helpers but I wouldn't focus
on that too much now, it could well be done later.
And please avoid introducing new __clk_lookup() calls.

Keeping core bus clocks always running seems like a separate
independent feature to me (not related to suspend/resume). It's
mentioned in commit 523d3de41f02 ("clk: samsung: exynos5433: Add
support for runtime PM") this way:

    "Also for each CMU there is one special parent clock, which has to
be enabled all the time when any access to CMU registers is being
done."

Why do you think suspend/resume paths have to be implemented along
with it? Btw, I didn't add PM ops in clk-exynos850, as PM is not
implemented on my board yet and I can't test it.

If you are suggesting moving all stuff from exynos5433_cmu_probe()
into samsung_cmu_register_one(), it would take passing platform_device
there, and implementing all PM related operations. I guess it's not a
super easy task, as it would require converting clk-exynos7 to
platform_driver for instance, and re-testing everything on exynos5433
and exynos7 boards (which I don't have).

What do you say if I pull that code to clk-exynos850.c instead for v2?
Refactoring (merging stuff from exynos5433_cmu_probe() into
samsung_cmu_register_one() ) can be done later, when I add PM ops into
clk-exynos850.

You can skip the runtime PM, so keep your patch almost like it is now
(in respect to Sylwester's comment about __clk_lookup). However now the
Exynos5433 will enable the clk_name twice: here and in
exynos5433_cmu_probe().

If you keep this approach, you need to remove duplicated part in
exynos5433_cmu_probe()...

My patch is only touching samsung_cmu_register_one(), and
exynos5433_cmu_probe() doesn't call samsung_cmu_register_one(). So I
don't think there can be a problem there. Or I'm missing something?

samsung_cmu_register_one() is actually called from 5433 clk driver,
but only from CMUs registered with CLK_OF_DECLARE(), and those are not
setting .clk_name field, so my code is not affecting those either.

Real problem I can see is that I can't avoid using __clk_lookup() if I
implement that code in samsung_cmu_register_one(). Tried to do use
clk_get(NULL, ...) instead, but it doesn't work with 1st param (dev)
being NULL, because samsung_clk_register_*() functions don't register
clkdev (only samsung_clk_register_fixed_rate() does), hence
LIST_HEAD(clocks) is empty in clkdev.c, and clk_get() fails, when not
provided with actual 'dev' param, which in turn is not present in
samsung_cmu_register_one()...

About using platform_driver: as I can see from clk-exynos5433.c, only
CMUs which belong to Power Domains are registered as platform_driver.
Rest of CMUs are registered using CLK_OF_DECLARE(), thus they don't
get platform_device param. That makes it harder to avoid using
__clk_lookup() inside samsung_cmu_register_one().

All that said, I feel like correct way to implement this patch would be:
  1. Register all PD-capable CMUs as platform_driver in clk-exynos850
(all CMUs except CMU_TOP)
  2. Move bus clock enablement code from samsung_cmu_register_one() to
corresponding clk-exynos850 probe function

This way I would be able to use clk_get(dev, ...) instead of
__clk_lookup(), and that won't affect any existing code for sure. Code
will be more unified w.r.t. how it's done in clk-exynos5433, and
platform_device will be a foundation for implementing PM ops later.
Taking into account how much design decisions should be done for using
that in common code -- I'd say let's do that later, as a separate
refactoring activity.

Do you think that makes sense?

Thanks!
