clk: add CLK_RECALC_NEW_RATES clock flag for Exynos cpu clock support
This flag is needed to fix the issue with wrong dividers being setup
by Common Clock Framework when using the new Exynos cpu clock support.
The issue happens because clk_core_set_rate_nolock() calls
clk_calc_new_rates(clk, rate) before both pre/post clock notifiers have
a chance to run. In case of Exynos cpu clock support pre/post clock
notifiers are registered for mout_apll clock which is a parent of armclk
cpu clock and dividers are modified in both pre and post clock notifier.
This results in wrong dividers values being later programmed by
clk_change_rate(top). To workaround the problem CLK_RECALC_NEW_RATES
flag is added and it is set for mout_apll clock later so the correct
divider values are re-calculated after both pre and post clock notifiers
had run.
For example when using "performance" governor on Exynos4210 Origen board
the cpufreq-dt driver requests to change the frequency from 1000MHz to
1200MHz and after the change state of the relevant clocks is following:
Without use of CLK_GET_RATE_NOCACHE flag:

Without this change cpufreq-dt driver showed ~10 mA larger energy
consumption when compared to cpufreq-exynos one when "performance"
cpufreq governor was used on Exynos4210 SoC based Origen board.
This issue was probably meant to be workarounded by use of
CLK_GET_RATE_NOCACHE and CLK_DIVIDER_READ_ONLY clock flags in
the original Exynos cpu clock patchset (in "[PATCH v12 6/6] clk:
samsung: remove unused clock aliases and update clock flags" patch)
but usage of these flags is not sufficient to fix the issue observed.
