TI SoC:s use a copy pasted version of the mux clock (with some 
additional tweaks), but we never set the CLK_MUX_INDEX_BIT flag, so we 
have been safe from this bug. Feel free to send a patch against the TI 
clock driver also if you want, I can ack that one. If not, I can craft a 
quick patch for this myself.
