[PATCH v4 01/13] clk: microchip: mpfs: fix clk_cfg array bounds violation

Unnoticed in current code, there is an array bounds violation present
during clock registration. This seems to fail gracefully in v6.0-rc1,
and life carrys on. While converting the driver to use standard clock
structs/ops, kernel panics were seen during boot when built with clang:

It fails on "clk_periph_timer" - which uses a different parent, that it
tries to find using the macro:
\#define PARENT_CLK(PARENT) (&mpfs_cfg_clks[CLK_##PARENT].cfg.hw)

If parent is RTCREF, so the macro becomes: &mpfs_cfg_clks[33].cfg.hw
which is well beyond the end of the array. Amazingly, builds with GCC
11.1 see no problem here, booting correctly and hooking the parent up
etc. Builds with clang-15 do not, with the above panic.

Drop the macro for the RTCREF and use the array directly to avoid the
panic, using a newly added define that brings the index into the valid
range.
