Subject: [PATCH] clk: mux: fix the return value of get_parent

If there're no parents on the clock mux node, it should return 0, not an
errnor code.

The orphan clock node is using get_parent() to get the index of its
parents in__clk_init(). If the return value is negative, it'll be
transformed to a u8 value (clk_mux_get_parent()). Then the orphan clock
node tries to get its parent with the invalid index. It will only cause
accessing memory beyond border.
