Thanks for the update!

LGTM. But as I will not apply the second patch yet anyway, I am a
little bit more pedantic with my comments below (no offense intended,
though ;-)

Perhaps combine these two fields into

s8 ext_clk_mux_index;

with -1 indicating not valid, cfr. mon_bit?

I think the first condition can be dropped, as clock->external_clk
implies a valid mon_index.

Can this actually happen?

I am not so fond of the goto and the !skip_mon logic, and wonder
if we can improve? Perhaps spin of the index obtaining logic into a
parent_clk_mux_index() helper, and something like:

int mon_index = clock->mon_index;

if (clock->external_clk) {
if (parent_clk_mux_index(hw) == clock->external_clk_mux_index))
mon_index = -1;
}

if (mon_index >= 0) {
// do it
}
