#1446265 — [PATCH] clk: prevent __of_clk_get_hw_from_provider() from returning NULL

The .get(_hw) callback of an OF clock provider can return a NULL
pointer in some cases.

For example, of_clk_src_onecell_get() returns NULL for index 1 of a
sparse array of clocks like follows:

  clk_num == 3
  idx 0: UART clk
  idx 1: NULL (no clk is allocated)
  idx 2: I2C clk

In such cases, clk_get() successfully returns NULL.

A problem is that most drivers only check IS_ERR(), like follows:

  clk = devm_clk_get(dev, NULL);
  if (IS_ERR(clk))
          return PTR_ERR(clk);

It carries on moving forward and will probably be hit by a different
error check with a different error message.

Let's make __of_clk_get_hw_from_provider() return ERR_PTR(-ENOENT)
if the .get(_hw) returns NULL.
