crypto/amlogic: Use devm APIs for clock management
This commit converts the driver to use devm_clk_get_enabled instead of
manually getting and enabling the core clock. This change allows the removal
of manual cleanup code in the error paths and simplifies the probe function.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
[Severity: Low]
Is there a typo in the function name meson_allocate_chainlist?

[Severity: High]
Since the allocation of chanlist was moved before this loop, if
platform_get_irq fails, does returning directly here bypass the cleanup of
resources allocated by meson_allocate_chanlist?
If this cleanup is bypassed, could it cause a use-after-free when orphaned
kthreads attempt to access the devm-managed engine structures after they are
freed?

[Severity: High]
Similarly, if devm_request_irq fails, does returning directly here bypass
cleanup, leaking DMA coherent memory and leaving crypto_engine kthreads
running?
