[PATCH] clk: Fix cached parent ptrs allocation

[Prashant Gaikwad]

Compiler optimizes code someway that even if clk->parents
is not NULL it tries to allocate parents array. Change the
condition so that compiler does not optimize it in wrong
way.

Also, initialize i to num_parents to make sure parent
is searched using parent name if parents is NULL.

Mike,

There could be some other way to fix problem. I have not
debugged it in detail but I think this simple change should do.
