Aren't we suppose to have clocks in there too?

Thanks,

I deliberately left them out as they are not needed on sun6i, once the blocks
are setup ahb access is not necessary, but it seems that the ahb_gate bits
in sun4i / sun5i / sun7i double as a reset. Toggling them on / off / on breaks
the mode, while toggling module clocks on / off / on only causes a glitch.

Since the sun6i has a separate reset controller, the clock gates seem to really
only control ahb access which is not necessary once the mode has been set up.

Regards,

Hans

Ok. That can always be changed in the future if we ever find we need
them anyway.

I'll merge these four patches as soon as the bindings doc is
acked-by/merged by Grant or any other DT maintainer.

Note these patches are using framebuffer0 rather then framebuffer0-hdmi as node
name, which may cause issues if we later want to add lcd support. So I've a v2
coming which changes the name to framebuffer0-hdmi, please merge that instead.

Regards,

Hans
