4.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Vladimir Zapolskiy <vz@mleia.com>

commit cb0ceaf77d93964a0d00477c79f4499123f6159c upstream.

The clk_register() function returns a valid pointer to struct clk or
ERR_PTR() error code, this makes a check for returned NULL value
useless and may lead to oops on error path.
