[PATCH V2 1/3] clk: fix clk_mux_get_parent return's signed value

From: Ambresh K <ambresh at ti.com>

clk_mux_get_parent should return an error if the value read
from the register is erroneous.

Currently if the value read is greater than the number of
available parents clk_mux_get_parent return's signed error
which will result in NULL pointer dereferencing in the
calling functions.
