s4 has been added to the compatible list while converting the Amlogic PWM
binding documentation from txt to yaml.
However, on the s4, the clock bindings have different meaning compared to
the previous SoCs.
On the previous SoCs the clock bindings used to describe which input the
PWM channel multiplexer should pick among its possible parents.
This is very much tied to the driver implementation, instead of describing
the HW for what it is. When support for the Amlogic PWM was first added,
how to deal with clocks through DT was not as clear as it nowadays.
The Linux driver now ignores this DT setting, but still relies on the
hard-coded list of clock sources.
On the s4, the input multiplexer is gone. The clock bindings actually
describe the clock as it exists, not a setting. The property has a
different meaning, even if it is still 2 clocks and it would pass the check
when support is actually added.
Also the s4 cannot work if the clocks are not provided, so the property is
no longer optional.
Finally, for once it makes sense to see the input as being numbered
somehow. No need to bother with clock-names on the s4 type of PWM.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
