So this only updates of_mux_clk_setup(). of_ti_composite_mux_clk_setup()
calls ti_clk_add_component(), which does a name based matching as well.
It would be nice to have this consistent within the same driver. I know
this is going to require a larger refactor.

Otherwise your fix looks correct to me.
