Subject: clk: Don't touch hardware when reparenting during registration

From: Stephen Boyd <sboyd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit f8f8f1d04494d3a6546bee3f0618c4dba31d7b72 ]

The orphan clocks reparent operation shouldn't touch the hardware
if clocks are enabled, otherwise it may get a chance to disable a
newly registered critical clock which triggers the warning below.

Assuming we have two clocks: A and B, B is the parent of A.
Clock A has flag: CLK_OPS_PARENT_ENABLE
Clock B has flag: CLK_IS_CRITICAL

Step 1:
Clock A is registered, then it becomes orphan.

Step 2:
Clock B is registered. Before clock B reach the critical clock enable
operation, orphan A will find the newly registered parent B and do
reparent operation, then parent B will be finally disabled in
__clk_set_parent_after() due to CLK_OPS_PARENT_ENABLE flag as there's
still no users of B which will then trigger the following warning.

We know that the clk isn't enabled with any sort of prepare_count
here so we don't need to enable anything to prevent a race. And
we're holding the prepare mutex so set_rate/set_parent can't race
here either. Based on an earlier patch by Dong Aisheng.
