Subject: [PATCH v3] clk: set initial best mux parent to current parent with
 CLK_MUX_ROUND_CLOSEST

From: Yang Xiwen <forbidden405@...look.com>

Originally, the initial clock rate is hardcoded to 0, this can lead to
some problem when setting a very small rate with CLK_MUX_ROUND_CLOSEST.

For example, if the lowest possible rate provided by the mux is 1000Hz,
setting a rate below 500Hz will fail, because no clock can provide a
better rate than the non-existant 0Hz. But it should succeed with 1000Hz
being set.

Setting the initial best parent to current parent could solve this bug.

This is actually a v2 of [1]. It's tested in a mmc host driver.

Changes in v3:
- remove the fix for clk_test.c
- limit the fix to CLK_MUX_ROUND_CLOSEST
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240306-mux-v2-0-92a5fa461fd2@outlook.com

Changes in v2:
- cover letter: remove statements about unittest
- add fix for clk_test.c
- s/privide/provide
- Cc Maxime
All suggested by Stephan Boyd
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240215-mux-v1-1-ebb2fba31d49@outlook.com
