Yeah, I wasn't sure whether it made sense for __clk_determine_rate to
have the fallbacks because any caller would need to have checked that
the clock implementation supports determine_rate and is aware of the
rate constraints.

As long as people don't get confused, I'm fine with any of the possibilities.
