This patch set tries to improve the PRCI driver to reduce the
complexity, we remove the SoCs C files by putting putting all stuff in
each SoCs header file, and include these SoCs-specific header files in
core of PRCI. It can also avoid the W=1 kernel build warnings about
variable defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=], like 'commit
487dc7bb6a0c ("clk: sifive:fu540-prci: Declare static const variable
'prci_clk_fu540' where it's used")' does.

This patch set also contains the dt-bindings and dts change, because
we change the macro name for fu540 and fu740 by adding the prefix
respectively.

Thanks all for your review and suggestions.

Zong Li (4):
dt-bindings: change the macro name of prci in header files and example
riscv: dts: Change the macro name of prci in each device node
clk: sifive: Add SoCs prefix in each SoCs-dependent data

IIUC these there aren't bisectable: the bindings change will break builds of the DTs and drivers. I'm not sure what's generally the way to go with these, but I always try to avoid broken builds in the middle of patch sets.

Aside from that this generally looks good to me, but the DT and clock folks are probably a better bet for a proper review here. Happy to take this through the RISC-V tree, but IMO it's a better candidate for the clock tree so

Thanks!
