The first patch that calls this function is the second one in this
series "clk: ti: dra7-atl: don't allocate` parent_names' variable ".
Since I don't have the dra7 hardware, I have indirectly tested it on a
beaglebone (gate clock driver) board. To do this I also
had to add the of_ti_clk_register_omap_hw() helper. In the case of the
dra7-atl driver it was not necessary because the setup
function calls the ti_clk_register() directly.
If you think it makes sense, I can do 1 or more patches that replace
ti_clk_register() and ti_clk_register_omap_hw() with their
counterparts of_ti_clk_register[_omap_hw]. And I could test this
further series on the beaglebone board.

Thanks and regards,
Dario
