What about to bump the "by-level" sorting priority, making it above the
"by-rate" sorting and then always use the first clock for the "by-rate"
sorting? Then the multi-clock will work for Tegra without breaking dtbs
and those for whom this sorting option won't be appropriate will have to
add levels to the DT.
