Is clk_set_rate() only legal to call in non-atomic contexts then? The header file doesn't say, although I guess since many other functions explicitly say they can't, then by omission it can...

I think when all this was discussed alongside the clk_prepare/clk_unprepare stuff, that yes, it was decided that clk_set_rate() was non-atomic only.

And yes, that is most definitely the case, because the first thing clk_set_rate() does is take a mutex - which will trigger a might_sleep() complaint if ever called from an atomic context.
