That's defconfig for all platforms, so how anyone can guess which one
you target here? Be specific, which company, which Soc, which board
needs it.



Best regards,

Sure, I will update the commit message as below to provide the details
required.

The common PLL hardware block is available in the Qualcomm IPQ SoC such
as IPQ9574 and IPQ5332. It provides fixed rate output clocks to Ethernet
related hardware blocks such as external Ethernet PHY or switch. This
driver is initially being enabled for IPQ9574. All boards based on
IPQ9574 SoC will require to include this driver in the build.

Does it provide more than Ethernet clocks? I'm just wondering why the
name `common`, when it seems pretty uncommon, specialised for Ethernet
clocks on a couple of SoCs.

No, this block does not provide any other functionality other than
allowing this PLL to be configured for supplying clocks to Ethernet
devices. The hardware programming guide names this block as the 'CMN'
block, so we included the 'cmn' phrase in the driver namespace. However,
I will update commit message to clarify that 'cmn' is the block name and
it does not provide any other function other than enabling clocks to
Ethernet related devices.
