From: Stephen Boyd sboyd@codeaurora.org
[ Upstream commit f8f8f1d04494d3a6546bee3f0618c4dba31d7b72 ]
The orphan clocks reparent operation shouldn't touch the hardware if clocks are enabled, otherwise it may get a chance to disable a newly registered critical clock which triggers the warning below.
Assuming we have two clocks: A and B, B is the parent of A. Clock A has flag: CLK_OPS_PARENT_ENABLE Clock B has flag: CLK_IS_CRITICAL
Step 1: Clock A is registered, then it becomes orphan.
Step 2: Clock B is registered. Before clock B reach the critical clock enable operation, orphan A will find the newly registered parent B and do reparent operation, then parent B will be finally disabled in __clk_set_parent_after() due to CLK_OPS_PARENT_ENABLE flag as there's still no users of B which will then trigger the following warning.

We know that the clk isn't enabled with any sort of prepare_count here so we don't need to enable anything to prevent a race. And we're holding the prepare mutex so set_rate/set_parent can't race here either. Based on an earlier patch by Dong Aisheng.
