Hello Wolfgang,

first the good news: Your patches also work with our MPC5121-board.

My idea was: it might be nice to save both #else-branches and the if-clause in
probe() which calls this get_clock() or the other (and then another in case
there will be a new mpc5xyz-user in the future). And replace it with some
mpc5xxx_custom_init() which is taken from of_device_id->data. No big issue,
though; no show-stopper.

I wonder if this (and the occurence in clock.c) should be factored out and
moved to asm/mpc5xxx.h?

Well, the arguments in your other mail make sense to me, so keep it this way.
As not only the index-issue, but also the clock-handling is different for the
PSCs, it is at least consistently inconsistent :D

One further note: I couldn't spot any code handling Rev1 of the MPC5121? Do you
plan to add such code? If not, we should at least put a comment that it is
missing. The binding documentation should be updated as well, as you can't use
all options on such revisions.
