Hmm, this can cause an issue. The first thing I have to ask is, why
can't we use ctx->instance->clock. I'm sure the answer is that we are
adding more than one clock. But this begs the question, which clock
should be use, if there are more than one clock to add?

I think this patch is not needed. In the last patch, test if
ctx->instance->clock exists, and if not, we search the other instances
for a clock to use. Or something else that doesn't make which clock to
use ambiguous.
