The behavior assumed by default was equivalent to
__clk_mux_determine_rate + CLK_SET_RATE_NO_REPARENT. We could indeed set
both if determine_rate is missing in the core, but that's unprecedented
in the clock framework so I think we'll want Stephen to comment here :)

It's also replacing one implicit behavior by another. The point of this
series was to raise awareness on that particular point, so I'm not sure
it actually fixes things. We'll see what Stephen thinks about it.
