On a possible HW bug or in-correct configuration of MUX register's in
bootloader; might return a value greater than available parent clocks
for a MUX clk.
Sensing invalid parent index, clk_mux_get_parent returns -EINVALID.
Due to function's "u8" return type it will get converted into signed value,
thus causing following pointer dereference on test platform.
M[ 0.000000] dra7xx_clk_init: clk init (gpu_core_gclk_mux)^M
^M[ 0.000000] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual
address 00000000^M
^M[ 0.000000] pgd = c0004000^M
^M[ 0.000000] [00000000] *pgd=00000000^M
^M[ 0.000000] Internal error: Oops: 5 [#1] SMP ARM^M

^M[ 0.000000] PC is at strcmp+0x8/0x34^M
Changes since v1:
- Fixed review comments.
- Fixed return type of .get_parent callback function.
Ambresh K (3):
clk: fix clk_mux_get_parent return's signed value
clk: skip re-parenting orphan clk
ARM: OMAP2+: clk: Fix return type of callbacks
