[ARM] omap: clk_set_parent: deny changing parent if clock is enabled
Richard Woodruff writes: | The historic usage of this has been against single use leaf clocks | (1st instance of gptimer). When it was used it did: | clk_get() | clk_set_parent() | clk_enable() | | This usage was ok for that. Use on a disabled clock is needed. | | If there are multiple users on the clock or it is enabled there are | problems. | | The call can still be unfriendly if 2 different drivers are using the | clock with their own clock get/enable. It might be the function should | return an error if usecount != 0 to stop surprises. It is all around | better if the parenting is done when the clock is off. This is a good reason to ensure that the clock is not enabled when clk_set_parent() is called.
