[ Upstream commit 22592df194e31baf371906cc720da38fa0ab68f5 ]
With CPU frequency determining software [1] we have discovered that
after this driver does one CPU frequency change, the base frequency of
the CPU is set to the frequency of TBG-A-P clock, instead of the TBG
that is parent to the CPU.
This can be reproduced on EspressoBIN and Turris MOX:
cd /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy0
echo powersave >scaling_governor
echo performance >scaling_governor
Running the mhz tool before this driver is loaded reports 1000 MHz, and
after loading the driver and executing commands above the tool reports
800 MHz.
The change of TBG clock selector is supposed to happen in function
armada37xx_cpufreq_dvfs_setup. Before the function returns, it does
this:
parent = clk_get_parent(clk);
clk_set_parent(clk, parent);
The armada-37xx-periph clock driver has the .set_parent method
implemented correctly for this, so if the method was actually called,
this would work. But since the introduction of the common clock
framework in commit b2476490ef11 ("clk: introduce the common clock..."),
the clk_set_parent function checks whether the parent is actually
changing, and if the requested new parent is same as the old parent
(which is obviously the case for the code above), the .set_parent method
is not called at all.
This patch fixes this issue by filling the correct TBG clock selector
directly in the armada37xx_cpufreq_dvfs_setup during the filling of
other registers at the same address. But the determination of CPU TBG
index cannot be done via the common clock framework, therefore we need
to access the North Bridge Peripheral Clock registers directly in this
driver.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
