This is broken for both deferred probe and in the case where the clock API genuinely returns a NULL clock. Other than that it's the kind of thing that we've done for some other drivers, though it's not good to have to do this. Check them for correct behaviour.
Ideally we'd introduce a {devm_}clk_get_optional(), with the same semantics as gpiod_get_optional(), which handles the finer details of differentiating between clock specified, but not yet probed, clock specified, but incorrectly and no clock specified, so this doesn't have to be done over and over by each driver.
