This paragraph needs some work, particularly the verbs you chose. In the
clk subsystem "setting parent clock" actually refers to re-parenting.

>From include/linux/clk-provider.h:

#define CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT     BIT(2) /* propagate rate change up one level */

So what you want to say is to propagate rate changes to CPUX up one
level, so PLL_CPUX gets changed as well.

The precise wording could be something like:

    The CPUX clock is the clock source for the ARM cores on the H3 SoC.
    It is a mux clock fed by, amongst other fixed clock sources, the
    configurable PLL_CPUX.

    Set CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT on the CPUX clock, so rate changes to it
    are propagated up one level to the PLL_CPUX clock.
