I guess it is because of the pm_runtime_put_sync() in the
omap2_mcbsp_set_clks_src() around the fclk re-parenting.
That is a bit dubious thing for sure. We need to disable the device to
be able to re-parent the fclk but if we disable the device it is going
to be powered down, right? I think we have appropriate context handling,
so it might work, but it is certainly not a rock solid code... If you
have a stream running already, you don't really want to kill the McBSP.

The problem is that this mux is outside of the McBSP IP, so we need a
system level (iow, clk API) way to change it runtime.

What is the machine driver where this happens? If you set the sysclk in
hw_params of the machine driver, it will be OK, but if you do that in
probe time then it is likely going to fail as you experienced
