It really turned out that the PMIC just acts as a clock buffer. So I do
as you suggested and add lookup for parent clock to the driver. I
planned to do it so that if no parent is found from DT - then we assume
the 32.768KHz clock (as described in documentation). Eg, something along
the lines:

        init.parent_names = of_clk_get_parent_name(pdev->dev.parent->of_node, 0);
        if (init.parent_names) {
                init.num_parents = 1;
        } else {
                /* If parent is not given from DT we assume the typical use-case with
                 * 32.768 KHz oscillator for RTC (Maybe we could just error out here?)
                 */
                c->rate = BD71837_CLK_RATE;
                bd71837_clk_ops.recalc_rate = &bd71837_clk_recalc_rate;
        }

Does this make sense?
