I would drop the .name field. It was a bad workaround
due to limitations of the factors clk code at the time
by me. We really shouldn't hard-code the name if we want
to reuse the driver.
I know what you mean (my first thought, too) and I totally agree, but we
need it still for PLL5, which does not carry the original name in the DT
output names.
So at least this workaround here does not work, I guess we have to come
up with something different - which would be a different patch.
I can take a look into this later.
Actually, it could be easily worked around. Always take the first
clock output name, take whatever is before '_', and you can remove the
name field entirely.
Yeah, I was thinking about that, too, but wanted to give an easy patch a
try first.
Jens did something along these lines here:

Indeed, I stumbled upon this by accident today. Looks great on the first
glance: using .self first, then the stub till the underscore. I can
review and test this, if needed.
Maybe we should simply rebase this patch, and remove the part that
falls back on the name field.
I am totally fine with this!

Thanks!
Andre.
