Yes, the above patch fixes the problem and the SoCFPGA board is able to
boot.

Yes, .get_parent call back is define when num_parents = 1. If you take a
look at socfpga.dtsi, the main_pll of type "altr,socfpga-pll-clk" only
has 1 parent, osc1. But the periph_pll and sdram_pll, also of type
"altr,socfpga-pll-clk" has > 1 parents.
