Hi Marek

> In case the "clock-frequency" DT property is not present, the

> and the subsequent req_size = prop->length / sizeof(u32); will
> trigger a NULL pointer dereference.

Thank you for your patch, it was my fail.
But your patch will breaks Lager board sound
(= it doesn't need clkout, and have no "clock-frequency")

I will try to fix this issue
