Yes, a rate won't be set for a clock if its corresponding entry in
clock-rates property is set to 0. Sorry, should have mentioned it.

Would adding a sentence as below to end of the first paragraph above
make it clear ?

"To skip setting a rate or parent for a clock the value of a corresponding
entry in the clock-rates or clock-parents property respectively should
be set to 0. The trailing zeros can be omitted."
