In the clk driver you can do a clk_set_parent(clk[ssi1_sel], clk[mpll]);

I wonder what the parent setting has to do with this problem. Could you
come up with a minimum patch to clk-imx27.c which fixes the problem?
Then we can discuss afterwards how to integrate it properly (or not the
least dirty).

Right now the clk framework has been succesful in turning the clk mess
into a proper tree. There currently is no API to manipulate that tree
in a non painful way. That would be the next steps.
