This device tree will break existing kernels that do not have the clk patches applied (no clocksource, as we don't know the speed of the APB clock. You can boot if you pass a lpj value on the command line, but won't have a uart). Older device trees running with the newer kernel will function as well as pre-4.16 kernels. That is, that some IP blocks (i2c, pwm/tach, adc) will not work as the kernel lacks reset controller and clock enabling. This is being changed as existing device trees use fixed-clocks in order to boot without a clk driver. The newly added clk driver provides proper clock support, including gating, so we move the device trees over to properly request clocks. The SCU compatible string is updated as the g4-scu string made it into the tree before we decided on aspeed,astX000-<ip> as the format for the strings. The old string will be removed from the bindings in a future patch. Signed-off-by: Joel Stanley <joel@jms.id.au>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
