Re: accel/rocket: clks[].id fix - standalone patch, or would you prefer to split it out?

Hi Tomeu

(re-adding linux-rockchip to Cc, I think it got dropped by accident)

Will do - I just sent the clks[].id fix as a standalone patch:

[PATCH] accel/rocket: request the core clocks by name
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-rockchip/[email protected]/

It is intentionally minimal (no per-SoC match data, ARRAY_SIZE and
clks[4] untouched) so it should rebase trivially under both the RK3576
v3 and the RK3568 series.

Jiaxing: your version in 6/8 of course stays correct - with this landed
first, that hunk in v3 just shrinks to the two new CBUF ids.
Thanks,

Igor
