[PATCH v2] clk: mstar: msc313-mpll: fix off-by-one in clock array allocation

[hanzhijian]

The hws array of mpll->clk_data is allocated with struct_size() using
ARRAY_SIZE(output_dividers) as the element count, giving it 7 elements.
But the probe function stores the MPLL clock at hws[0] and one
fixed-factor clock for each output divider at hws[i + 1] for i in
[0, ARRAY_SIZE(output_dividers)), writing 8 elements in total.  The
final write to hws[7] is past the end of the allocation.

clk_data->num is also set to NUMOUTPUTS (8), so the clock framework
reads hws[0..7], again accessing hws[7] out of bounds.

Use NUMOUTPUTS as the element count so the allocation matches the
number of clocks actually stored and exposed.

Found by smatch:
  drivers/clk/mstar/clk-msc313-mpll.c:134 msc313_mpll_probe()
  error: buffer overflow 'mpll->clk_data->hws' 7 <= 7
