Really sorry about that :/

The driver is the provider and consumer, so it is consuming itself.
This was the intent, I think the patch should be correct like
this. Maybe I overlooked something on the clock side. I'll check.

I'm not sure the problem is devm_ variant, it might be 
clk_hw_get_clk() simpler variant which also plays with module ref counts.

I don't have this particular HW to check but I'll try to replicate the
test with a dummy module and report ASAP.

Of course, I suppose the same problem applies to PATCH 1 of the series
