Drop the comment, it is obvious. It cannot be anything else.

Why isn't this merged here? You do not need the child node really...
unless the clock inputs are specific to that clock controller and you
will have here more devices? But where are they in such case?
I don't see more devices will be included later. It should be ok to merge them into one.

hi, Krzysztof,

After some double check, I find we will have more devices in system-control. For example, in the SYS_CTRL area, there is also a section of registers used to control the "General Purpose Interrupt". The pcie controller of sg2042 will use this interrupt controller which is defined in SYS_CTRL, we will add it in later work.

Specifically, the distribution (offset) of registers in SYS_CTRL is as follows:

- 0x0C0 ~ 0x0FC: for some PLL clocks :

- ......

- 0x2E0 ~ 0x30C: for General Purpose Interrupt:

- ......

- 0x368 ~ 0x3FC: For some gate clocks

So it seems that it is still necessary to keep the current child node method, and it will also facilitate future expansion.

What do you think, please feel free let me know.

Thanks,

Chen

hi, Krzysztof,

Can you please take a look if you have time, looking forward to your reply.

Thanks,

Chen
