The ptp_qoriq driver initialized the 1588 timer with the
configurations provided by the properties of device tree
node. For example,

  fsl,tclk-period = <5>;
  fsl,tmr-prsc    = <2>;
  fsl,tmr-add     = <0xaaaaaaab>;
  fsl,tmr-fiper1  = <999999995>;
  fsl,tmr-fiper2  = <99990>;
  fsl,max-adj     = <499999999>;

These things actually were runtime configurations which
were not proper to be put into dts. This patch is to convert
to use module parameters for 1588 timer initialization, and
to support initial register values calculation.
If the parameters are not provided, the driver will calculate
register values with a set of default parameters. With this
patch, those dts properties are no longer needed for new
platform to support 1588 timer, and many QorIQ DPAA platforms
(some P series and T series platforms of PowerPC, and some
LS series platforms of ARM64) could use this driver for their
fman ptp timer with default module parameters. However, this
patch didn't remove the dts method. Because there were still
many old platforms using the dts method. We need to clean up
their dts files, verify module parameters on them, and convert
them to the new method gradually in case of breaking any
function.

That is debatable.  While I agree that the dts isn't ideal for these,
still it is the lesser of two or more evils.

It is hard for me to understand how using module parameters improves
the situation.

In addition, like it or not, because the dts is an ABI, you must
continue support of the dts values as a legacy option.

Sorry, there is no way I am every applying something like this.  Module
parameters are to be avoided at all costs.

And you don't need it here, you have DTS, please use it.

You are required to support the existing DTS cases, in order to
avoid breaking things, anyways.

[Y.b. Lu] Ok. You're right indeed :)

[Y.b. Lu] Actually I'm not sure whether module_param will be accepted to replace dts.
I thought the most possibility would be rejection before sending them out.
Just want suggestion and confirmation whether there is better idea than dts from your comments.

Since we should keep the dts, I will drop the module_param.
Could I add a function to calculate a set of default register values to initialize ptp timer when dts method failed to get required properties in driver?
I think this will be useful. The ptp timer on new platforms (you may see two dts patches in this patchset. Many platforms will be affected.) will work without these dts properties. If user want specific setting, they can set dts properties.

[Y.b. Lu] I get your point now. The dts should be kept :)

[Y.b. Lu] I get your point. Will drop module_param method.
Thanks a lot for your suggestion.

Yes, it would be ideal if the driver can pick correct values
automatically.

However, the frequency on the FIPER outputs can't be configured
automatically, and we don't have an API for the user to choose this.

[Y.b. Lu] Thanks a lot. Just let me send out the v2 patch for your reviewing.
