[PATCH 1/4] clk: Remove WARN_ON NULL parent in clk_core_init_rate_req()

If a clock has CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT, but core->parent is NULL (most
likely because it's orphan), callers of clk_core_init_rate_req() will
blindly call this function leading to a very verbose warning.

Since it's a fairly common situation, let's just remove the WARN_ON but
keep the check that prevents us from dereferencing the pointer.

Interestingly, it fixes a regression on the Mediatek MT8195 where the
GPU would stall during a clk_set_rate for its main clock. We couldn't
come up with a proper explanation since the condition is essentially the
same.

It was then assumed that it could be timing related since printing the
warning stacktrace takes a while, but we couldn't replicate the failure
by using fairly large (10ms) mdelays.

Fixes: 262ca38f4b6e ("clk: Stop forwarding clk_rate_requests to the parent")
