Apologies for any confusion caused. To clarify, are you proposing the
idea of creating an additional sys_pll_input clock object with the
CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT property, and then using it as the parent clock for
cpu_clk?

Ah, that's an aspect I hadn't considered. You make a valid point. So,
this implies that the g12a clock driver could potentially encounter the
same issue, correct?

I believed that the same approach was employed with the g12a clock,
which uses a sys_pll <-> cpu fixed clock transition to ensure stable CPU
clocking. Am I overlooking something? Or does the g12a cpu clock
maintain a fixed frequency, thus indicating it is not fragile?
