You should ask yourself another question. Do you absolutely need that
rate and parent to operate properly?

If the answer is yes, the DT is not what you're looking for, it
provides no guarantee on the changes to the clock rate and parenthood,
and doesn't allow you to act upon those changes either.

If you want to make it work, you need to have some code to do that.
