It is not acceptable. We don't want there to only be a name member set
in a clk_parent_data structure. In fact, this driver is simply wrong
because it has many clk_parent_data structures with .fw_name == .name
and I don't see any 'clock-names' property in the DT bindings. The
driver looks like it should simply use clk_hw pointers directly and stop
using clk_parent_data structures entirely.

This is equivalent to the above.

	{ .name = "main_pll_c1", .index = 0 },

and thus the index will be used. Luckily there's no clocks property in
DT? But it also means that you're trying to lookup a clk from DT and
falling back to the name field eventually, i.e. we're wasting time
during parent discovery.
