Ok

Ok

Probably :%s/// effect. Will fix.

"If" isn't possible, order is guaranteed.

It's a bug in the device tree or in the Linux code then.

Because for the QE clock-frequency != brg-frequency.

You can add reserve function either in the PM driver (if any), or
you can do something in the device tree (wakeup-timer = <..>). I don't
see any problems if you want to implement it.

Will think about it.

Ok.

Ok.
