This problem is widespread
$ git grep abs(.*- -- drivers/clk/ | wc -l 52
so we may have a bigger problem here. Maybe some sort of coccinelle script or smatch checker can be written to look for abs() usage with an unsigned long type or a subtraction expression. This may also be worse after converting drivers to clk_hw_forward_rate_request() and clk_hw_init_rate_request() because those set the rate to ULONG_MAX. +Maxime for that as an FYI.
We set max_rate to ULONG_MAX in those functions, and I don't think we have a lot of driver that will call clk_round_rate on the max rate, so we should be somewhat ok?
Good point. I haven't looked to see if any drivers are using the max_rate directly. Hopefully they aren't.
