A more recent version of this patch is already in next:

No, can post a separate patch to remove them.

There are very few driver users of clk_hw_get_parent_by_index:

$ git grep -wl clk_hw_get_parent_by_index |grep -v drivers/clk
arch/mips/alchemy/common/clock.c
drivers/cpufreq/qoriq-cpufreq.c
drivers/devfreq/imx8m-ddrc.c
drivers/gpu/drm/sun4i/sun4i_hdmi_tmds_clk.c
drivers/gpu/drm/sun4i/sun8i_hdmi_phy_clk.c
drivers/media/platform/atmel/atmel-isc-base.c
drivers/rtc/rtc-ac100.c
include/linux/clk-provider.h

Even clk_get_parent has few users and it contains this strange comment:

/* TODO: Create a per-user clk and change callers to call clk_put */

That proposed change effectively creates a new API? I didn't want to add 
a new clk core API with unclear semantics.
