Why is this better to change current behaviour of the clock core
and modify all drivers instead of having, e.g. CLK_SET_RATE_REPARENT
set in drivers of hardware that supports clock re-parenting while
setting clock rate ?

Is there intention to just have the automatic clock re-parenting
as a default feature in the common clock API ?
My apologies if this has already been answered, I haven't been
following this thread.

Thanks,
Sylwester
