Switch from sub-nodes in system-controller for each functionality to a
single node representing the entire OLB instance. dt-bindings is
unnecessary and soc/mobileye/mobileye,eyeq5-olb.yaml will inherit all
properties.

Why changing this? You just added these bindings not so long time ago...
This is very confusing to push bindings and then immediately ask to
remove them.

Best regards,

One more point - anyway this should be revert with clear explanation WHY
you are reverting bindings.

Same for second patch.

Best regards,

See this revision as a proposal of something that has been asked
multiple times in previous reviews. See message from Stephen Boyd on
last revision [0], or discussion with Rob Herring on much earlier
revision [1].

Proposal from Stephen Boyd of using auxiliary devices makes sense, that
could be the future direction of this series. It won't change the
dt-bindings aspect of it, only the driver implementations.

I'll make sure to use standard revert formatting and explain why it is
being done.

That's driver, we talk about bindings.

So after Robs comment above, you still pushed the wrong approach and now
you revert it?

Why v7 was sent ignoring Rob's comments:

Yes. The gist of it is that I had misunderstood the messages. Mostly, I
did not understand how to implement separate Linux driver with the
desired devicetree structure (no subnode on the syscon for each
feature). I was missing knowledge about Linux infrastructure allowing
for that. MFD and auxdevs are two approaches, with auxdevs being
preferred.

The latest revision finally takes those comments into account.

Thanks Krzysztof,

-title: Mobileye EyeQ5 clock controller
-
-description:
-  The EyeQ5 clock controller handles 10 read-only PLLs derived from the main
-  crystal clock. It also exposes one divider clock, a child of one of the PLLs.
-  Its registers live in a shared region called OLB.
