I have no idea about this. This patch is from Qualcomm vendor linux 
code. And it's necessary for choosing parent and calculating clock rate 
correctly.

What's more, I don't known how to deal with these commit message since 
I'm not the author and I'm not sure do I have right to edit them even 
though this is GPL code.
