[PATCH 1/2] clk: bcm: Support rate change propagation on bcm2835 clocks

Some peripheral clocks, like the VEC (Video EnCoder) clock need to be set
to a precise rate (in our case 108MHz). With the current implementation,
where peripheral clocks are not allowed to forward rate change requests
to their parents, it is impossible to match this requirement unless the
bootloader has configured things correctly, or a specific rate has been
assigned through the DT (with the assigned-clk-rates property).

Add a new field to struct bcm2835_clock_data to specify which parent
clocks accept rate change propagation, and support set rate propagation
in bcm2835_clock_determine_rate().

Note: this approach is still fragile, since it does not prevent 2 clock
users from stepping on each other's toes.
We could use the clk rate constraints infrastructure, but it's only
applicable to leaf clocks in the clock tree (when you apply a constraint,
these constraints are not propagated to the clock tree).

Another approach would be to lock a rate on a clock, thus preventing
other users from changing it. Propagating rate locks would be easier than
propagating rate range constraints (see this patch
http://code.bulix.org/jwtzf8-107264), but it still requires that really
care about a specific clock rate explicitly lock the rate (using
clk_set_and_lock_rate()), and this means checking every drivers that have
such requirements.
