[PATCH] ARM: keystone: fix platform_domain_notifier array overrun

platform_domain_notifier contains a variable sized array, which the
pm_clk_notify() notifier treats as a NULL terminated array:
for (con_id = clknb->con_ids; *con_id; con_id++)
pm_clk_add(dev, *con_id);
Omitting the initialiser for con_ids means that the array is zero
sized, and there is no NULL terminator. This leads to pm_clk_notify()
overrunning into what ever structure follows, which may not be NULL.
This leads to an oops:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000008c
pgd = c0003000
[0000008c] *pgd=80000800004003c, *pmd=00000000c

This looks to be a latent bug that's been present since the above
commit - whether it's a problem depends on the data structure that
the linker places after platform_domain_notifier - if the first word
of the following structure is NULL, then the bug will be hidden. If
it's a pointer to a string, or something that reasonably looks like a
string, the bug will be hidden. If it's a value that points at an
invalid memory address, then an oops similar to the above will result.
