Good point.  I previously was doing parent detection from muxes
manually, then simplified to using the generic mux later.  I didn't have
any clocks I wanted to change mux on, so I missed this requirement.

It looks like there's not too much work to folding the muxing back into
the driver, so it seems like you have a good plan.

It looks like you've dropped the use of the divisor off of the PLL
channel when setting a rate.  That seems bad for all the other clocks in
the system, and a feature we couldn't lose.

Also, you're choosing the lowest but higher rate, while
mux_is_better_rate() chooses the highest but lower rate (which seems
much safer).  What led to that choice?

Also, if we're going to have this function, I think it should be called
"bcm2835_clock_determine_rate" to match the method name.

The parent get/setting looks good, though.
