I have zero context there, so I'm not sure what proposals have been made
already, but why isn't it possible to do it the other way around and
make the bridge ask the upstream driver if it can provide the clock
frequency the bridge require?

It's pretty much how the common clock framework works too: you set the
rate on the leaf clock, and it propagates upwards in your tree,
adjusting for any constraint we have along the way.

It does need to happen at atomic_check time though, otherwise it would
be terrible for anyone attempting to use that driver.
