I guess, strictly speaking you are right. Do you have a good
alternative?

This is difficult and I don't have a good solution for it, hence it's
missing. A clock consumer like a device driver or this driver, just
knows about it's input clock, but not about the topology further up.
Therefore it is pretty much impossible to implement reparent operations
in a clock consumer, IMHO.
IOW: For a given input clock, how do you figure out it's possible
parents?

Well, the more generic use-case probably. My Zynq use-case rather not,
IMHO.
