Sorry for not being descriptive in commit message.  

a) Avoids unnecessary re-parenting cycle for orphan clock's with invalid parent for every clock

b) With patch [1/3], after a clk with invalid parent was encountered, for every clk registered thereafter seeing following logs.

Please advice, if can be handled better.
