I'm sorry, I'm not sure what you mean here. The only issue to fix at the
moment is that determine_rate and set_parent aren't coupled, and it led
to issues due to oversight.

I initially added a warning but Stephen wanted to fix all users in that
case and make that an error instead.

If I filled __clk_mux_determine_rate into clocks that weren't using it
before, I would change their behavior. With that flag set, on all users
I add __clk_mux_determine_rate to, the behavior is the same than what we
previously had, so the risk of regressions is minimal, and everything
should keep going like it was?
