Well, I don't have good news. This patch has my 'tested-by', but this 
version again doesn't work properly on Meson G12B.

Linux next-20220929, which contains this patch as commit cb1b1dd96241 
("clk: Set req_rate on reparenting") fails to boot on Odroid-N2. I only 
see a freeze once the modules (I see some messages from meson drm and 
cpu_freq) are loaded. Could you remind me how to help debugging this 
issue? I will try to identify which clock causes the issue. Reverting 
$subject on top of linux-next fixes/hides the problem.
