Right, but what I'm saying is that if calling clk_set_rate() on the
PLL0 clock causes a crash, that sounds like a bug in the driver. If
you fix that bug, and make clk_set_rate() on the PLL0 clock do the
procedure above when changing the rate, then the PLL0 clock can work
just like any other clock and assigned-clock-rates would work.
