This looks obviously correct but I'm worried that it will cause some
problem somewhere. It would be nice if there were some kunit tests
associated with this. The worst case situation is that we recalc rates
if the CLK_GET_RATE_NOCACHE flag is set, right? I guess I'll just apply
this as a cleanup for the next merge window and see if it causes
problems for anyone.
