[PATCH v2 06/16] clk: move core->parents allocation to clk_register()

Currently, __clk_core_init() allows failure of the kcalloc() for the
core->parents.  So, clk_fetch_parent_index() and __clk_init_parent()
also try to allocate core->parents in case it has not been allocated
yet.  Scattering memory allocation here and there makes things
complicated.

Like other clk_core members, allocate core->parents in clk_register()
and let it fail in case of memory shortage.  If we cannot allocate
such a small piece of memory, the system is already insane.  There is
no point to postpone the memory allocation.

Also, allocate core->parents regardless of core->num_parents.  We want
it even if core->num_parents == 1 because clk_fetch_parent_index()
might be called against the clk_core with a single parent.

If core->num_parents == 0, core->parents is set to ZERO_SIZE_PTR. It
is harmless because no access happens to core->parents in such a case.
