The problem is we still need to be able to get runtime parent clock 
rates (the parent rate may change also), so simple index value is not 
sufficient. We need a handle of some sort to the bypass/ref clocks. The 
DPLL code generally requires knowledge of the bypass + reference clock 
rates to work properly, as it calculates the M/N values based on these.

Shall I change the DPLL code to check against clk_hw pointers or what is 
the preferred approach here? The patch at the end does this and fixes 
the dpll related warnings.

Btw, the rate constraints patch broke boot for me completely, but sounds 
like you reverted it already.

     ARM: OMAP3+: clock: dpll: fix logic for comparing parent clocks

     DPLL code uses reference and bypass clock pointers for determining 
runtime
     properties for these clocks, like parent clock rates.

     As clock API now returns per-user clock structs, using a global handle
     in the clock driver code does not work properly anymore. Fix this by
     using the clk_hw instead, and comparing this against the parents.
