[PATCH v2] rtc: ac100: Fix ac100 determine rate bug
From: Philipp Rossak
Date: Tue Feb 13 2018 - 07:14:24 EST
This patch fixes a bug, that prevents the Allwinner A83T and the A80
from a successful boot. You can find the shortend trace below:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
00000000
pgd = (ptrval)
[00000000] *pgd=00000000
Internal error: Oops: 5 [#1] SMP ARM

To fix that bug, we first check if the return of the
clk_hw_get_parent_by_index is non zero. If it is zero we skip that
clock parent.
