I searched for 'possible callers', I didn't find any places
where this would be used on the consumer side. However, downstream,
there is a rzn1-clock-bitselect.c clock driver which states:

+ * This clock provider handles the case of the RZN1 where you have peripherals
+ * that have two potential clock source and two gates, one for each of the
+ * clock source - the used clock source (for all sub clocks) is selected by a
+ * single bit.
+ * That single bit affects all sub-clocks, and therefore needs to change the
+ * active gate (and turn the others off) and force a recalculation of the rates.

I don't know how much of this file has been upstreamed (under a
different form) but this might very well be related to the fact that
reparenting in some cases would be a major issue and thus needs to be
avoided unless done on purpose (guessing?).

Maybe Ralph can comment, but for what I understand,
