This isn't preferred because of_clk_get_parent_name() is DT specific and
relies on the parent clk being registered before calling the function so
that we can figure out the globally unique name.

Yes use option #2. But, don't even specify a .name if this is new code
because .name is a fallback mechanism that is supposed to be used if
you're migrating code from an older DT to a newer DT. I don't think
that's happening here.
