Is there a chance that this removal:

- case POST_RATE_CHANGE:
- if (cnd->new_rate < DIV_2_THRESHOLD)
- ret = clk_cpu_8996_pmux_set_parent(&cpuclk->clkr.hw,
- SMUX_INDEX);
- else
- ret = clk_cpu_8996_pmux_set_parent(&cpuclk->clkr.hw,
- ACD_INDEX);

could have been the cause?

On one hand, we're removing this explicit "set ACD as parent" path, but
OTOH determine_rate should have taken care of this..
