The Davinci DA8xxx cfgchip mux clock implements a mux with a set_parent

This is a bit odd, since set_parent() is there to, as its name implies,
change the parent of a clock. However, the most likely candidate to
trigger that parent change is a call to clk_set_rate(), with
determine_rate() figuring out which parent is the best suited for a
given rate.
The other trigger would be a call to clk_set_parent(), but it's far less
used, and it doesn't look like there's any obvious user for that clock.
So, the set_parent hook is effectively unused, possibly because of an
oversight. However, it could also be an explicit decision by the
original author to avoid any reparenting but through an explicit call to
clk_set_parent().
The parent is defined in the device tree and is not expected to change
at runtime, so if I am understanding the patch correctly, setting the
CLK_SET_RATE_NO_REPARENT flag seems correct.
Is that an acked-by/reviewed-by?
Thanks!

The commit message could be updated to be more certain now, but sure...
