We can drop this patch[PATCH v2 2/3], as original issue was occurring when "pll_ref" clock is being changed to get the best desire clock rate for encoder and decoder. And now with recent changes in Xilinx clock driver(https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/b782921ddd7f84f524723090377903f399fdbbcb & https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/1fe15be1fb613534ecbac5f8c3f8744f757d237d) encoder and decoder are getting parent as "pll_post" to get best desire clock rate and not changing rate of "pll_ref".

Thanks
