This patch fixes a bug, that prevents the Allwinner A83T and the A80
from a successful boot. You can find the shortend trace below:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
00000000
pgd = (ptrval)
[00000000] *pgd=00000000
Internal error: Oops: 5 [#1] SMP ARM

To fix that bug, we first check if the return of the
clk_hw_get_parent_by_index is non zero. If it is zero we skip that
clock parent.

Should it be sent to stable?

clk_hw_get_num_parents should return the exact number of parents,
which is going to be 1 if you only have one parent, like all DTS seems
to have.

If not, then it should be explained in the comment and / or fixed
properly.

The clock has two parents. One is a fixed clock internally registered
by the driver. This is actually an external crystal, and we should
probably add a device node and the works for it. The other parent
is a clock from the codec side, which we properly declare and
reference in the device tree. This clock, though defined, is not
implemented in any driver (because we don't have any ATM).

This second missing clock is what's causing issues here. The clk core
looks for the parent by name, can't find one that is registered, and
returns NULL.

I guess the comment above is still not clear enough?

The bug is there since v4.16-rc1 and appeared after the clk branch was 
merged.

^^ Should I add this info also in the commit message?

I can get more detailed in the comment. I thought about this:

The clock has two parents, one is a fixed clock which is internally 
registered by the ac100 driver. The other parent is a clock from the 
codec side of the chip, which we properly declare and reference in the 
devicetree and is not implemented in any driver right now.
If the clock core looks for the parent of that second missing clock, it 
can't one that is registered and returns NULL.
Thus we need to check if the parent exists before we get the parent rate.

Is that ok for you?
