No.  Jonghwan Choi's patch is correct.

As per the patch description, the only error value which a driver can
attribute any problem with is something which passes IS_ERR().  Everything
else the driver must treat as a _valid_ struct clk - and the clk API
implementation must accept non-IS_ERR() clk_get() values.
