       This function selects a master clock for a subdevice. The clock parameter selects the master clock, and
       is driver-dependant. If the subdevice does not support configuring its master clocks on a per-channel
       basis, then the channel parameter will be ignored. The period_ns parameter specifies the clock's period
       in nanoseconds. It may left unspecified by using a value of zero. Drivers will ignore the clock period if
       they already know what the clock period should be for the specified clock (e.g. for an on-board 20MHz
       oscillator). Certain boards which use a phase-locked loop to synchronize to external clock sources must
       be told the period of the external clock. Specifying a clock period for an external clock may also allow
       the driver to support TRIG_TIMER sources in commands while using the external clock.

       The clock may be queried with the comedi_get_clock_source function.

       This function is only useable on subdevices that provide support for the INSN_CONFIG_SET_CLOCK_SRC
       configuration instruction.
