It almost worked, but not completely. The issue is that by the time you
call of_clk_get(np, index), index is no longer equal to the value
passed as argument to of_clk_get_parent_name(), it has been modified to
indicate the index of the *parent* clock.

So, after changing your patch to:

It does work properly for me, on top of 4.3-rc5, without any change to
my Device Tree files.

So, what is the plan now ?

 - Have the minimal fix in drivers/clk/mvebu/clk-cpu.c for 4.3.

 - Have the patch improving the of_clk_get_parent_name() logic merged
   in 4.4 + a revert of the fix done for 4.3 in clk-cpu.c. Unless maybe
   you don't want to clutter the core of the clock framework to handle
   this specific case?

 - Add the clock-output-names to the Marvell EBU Device Tree files, so
   that in a couple of kernel releases we can remove the hacks and rely
   on the generic logic of of_clk_get_parent_name().

Thanks,

Thomas
