[PATCH v5 01/14] clk: microchip: mpfs: fix clk_cfg array bounds violation

There is an array bounds violation present during clock registration,
triggered by current code by only specific toolchains. This seems to
fail gracefully in v6.0-rc1, using a toolchain build from the riscv-
gnu-toolchain repo and with clang-15, and life carries on. While
converting the driver to use standard clock structs/ops, kernel panics
were seen during boot when built with clang-15:

In v6.0-rc1 and later, this issue is visible without the follow on
patches doing the conversion using toolchains provided by our Yocto
meta layer too.

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.

Change the macro to use specific offsets depending on the parent rather
than the dt-binding's clock IDs.
