I'm also seeing clockevent break on omaps as a wrong source clock gets
picked.

It seems the dts assigned-clock-parents no longer works now?

So the following no longer sets omap_32k_fck as the clockevent source:

timer at 0 {
	assigned-clocks = <&gpt1_fck>;
	assigned-clock-parents = <&omap_32k_fck>;
};

Regards,

Tony
