In same cases it may be desired to round clock's rate without taking into
account current min/max requests made by the clock's users. One example is
building up OPP table based on a possible clock rates.

Hello Michał,

Thank you very much for the suggestion, I'll take it into account in the
next version.

Shouldn't the OPP table come from firmware/DT? I don't quite understand
why we're generating OPP tables on top of the rate rounding API.
clk_round_rate() is supposed to tell us what rate we'll get if we call
clk_set_rate() with the same arguments. An unboundly version of that
doesn't make sense. 

I wonder if perhaps the clk provider should be populating OPP tables in
this case? Or basically anything besides adding another clk consumer API
to solve this problem. Who is the caller? Something later in this
series?

BTW, please run get_maintainers.pl patches. Russell maintains
include/linux/clk.h (the clk API). CCF implements it.

The OPP should come from the DT, but unfortunately DT and Tegra's
devfreq driver wasn't designed like that from the start, so it will take
some extra effort to re-do it properly now. I wanted to postpone that
effort a tad and get at least the basics upstreamed for the starter.

I'll try to add a proper OPP table with freqs and voltages, will see how
it goes. We will need to do it sooner or later anyways. So perhaps it's
fine to drop the current approach with the clk_round_rate_unboundly()
and re-focus on a proper OPP implementation.

Thank you for getting back and replying to this topic :)

Alright, it sounds better to me if we can avoid a one off addition to
the clk API in favor of implementing a proper OPP table from the start.
