[PATCH v2 1/3] clk: Don't dereference parent clock if is NULL

From: Javier Martinez Canillas
Date: Thu Feb 12 2015 - 08:59:34 EST


The clock passed as an argument to clk_mux_determine_rate_flags()
has the CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT flag set but it has no parent, then a
NULL pointer will tried to be dereferenced.

This shouldn't happen since setting that flag for a clock with no
parent is a bug but the core should be robust to handle that case.

Fixes: 035a61c314eb3 ("clk: Make clk API return per-user struct clk instances")

Changes since v2:
- Pass NULL struct clk_hw argument to __clk_determine_rate() if parent is NULL.
suggested by Stephen Boyd.
