From: Ulf Hansson <ulf.hansson at linaro.org>

Issues with racing for fetching spinlocks is present in the
clk_set_parent API. This patchset is trying to fixup these issues.

In short, while updating the clock tree toplogy the spinlock must be held
to prevent enable_count from being messed up.

Patch 1 and 2 prepares for patch 3, which is where the real issue are
resolved.

Changes in v2:
	- Do not remove the existing __clk_reparent API.
	- Rebase patches.

Ulf Hansson (3):
  clk: Restructure code for __clk_reparent
  clk: Improve errorhandling for clk_set_parent
  clk: Fixup locking issues for clk_set_parent
