Hi Stephen,
Very sorry for the late reply.

What do you mean by associated DT binding? does the.fw_name, for
example, NPCM8XX_CLK_S_PLL0 need to represent in the device tree?

but still, I have used devm_clk_hw_register_mux_parent_data_table
function to register the clock mux,
should I use devm_clk_hw_register_mux_parent_hws function instead?
Does this modification need to be done in all the mux parent struct?
could you point me to some example in the Linux kernel how do you
think that I should represent the mux clock in the NPCM8XX clock
driver?

O.K.
Thanks,
