Phil Elwell a72cf12e90 clk-bcm2835: Read max core clock from firmware
The VPU is responsible for managing the core clock, usually under
direction from the bcm2835-cpufreq driver but not via the clk-bcm2835
driver. Since the core frequency can change without warning, it is
safer to report the maximum clock rate to users of the core clock -
I2C, SPI and the mini UART - to err on the safe side when calculating
clock divisors.

If the DT node for the clock driver includes a reference to the
firmware node, use the firmware API to query the maximum core clock
instead of reading the divider registers.

Prior to this patch, a "100KHz" I2C bus was sometimes clocked at about
160KHz. In particular, switching to the 4.9 kernel was likely to break
SenseHAT usage on a Pi3.

clk: bcm2835: Pass DT node to rpi_firmware_get

The fw_node pointer has already been retrieved, and using it allows
us to remove a downstream patch to the firmware 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.
