It is actually set up from the device tree, typically like this:

/* clkout1 from ACLK divided by 8 */
clocks = <&clkout_clk DB8500_CLKOUT_1 DB8500_CLKOUT_SRC_ACLK 8>;

So the parent (source) and divisor comes in there.

clk->source and clk->divider is already set up when clk_hw_register() is
called.

So set/get_parent() is never used on clkout.

I think I just added the callbacks for completeness, should we delete them
altogether? The patch is probably fine as-is as well so
