[PATCH] clk: handle NULL args in clk_set_parent()

NULL struct clk pointers should be treated just as the Linux kernel clk
driver does [1]. The reasoning should also apply to the parent clk
argument.

A NULL struct clk pointer can happen for example on the Freescale i.MX6
SABRE Smart Device Board if CONFIG_DRIVER_VIDEO_IMX_IPUV3 is disabled,
leading to assigned-clocks IMX6QDL_CLK_LDB_DI0_SEL and
IMX6QDL_CLK_LDB_DI1_SEL [2] being unavailable. Without this patch, the
board hangs while setting those assigned clock configurations since [3].
