[PATCH] clk: kirkwood: Fix a clocking boot regression

From: Linus Walleij <hidden>

Subsystem: arm/marvell kirkwood and armada 370, 375, 38x, 39x, xp, 3700, 7k/8k, cn9130 soc support, common clk framework, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, Gregory Clement, Sebastian Hesselbarth, Michael Turquette, Stephen Boyd, Linus Torvalds

Since a few kernel releases the Pogoplug 4 has crashed like this
during boot:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000002

This is because the "powersave" mux clock 0 was provided in an unterminated
array, which is required by the loop in the driver:

        /* Count, allocate, and register clock muxes */
        for (n = 0; desc[n].name;)
                n++;

Here n will go out of bounds and then call clk_register_mux() on random
memory contents after the mux clock.

Fix this by terminating the array with a blank entry.
