Dear Shawn Guo,

> The commit 766e6a4 (clk: add DT clock binding support) plugs device
> tree clk lookup of_clk_get_by_name into clk_get, and fall on non-DT
> lookup clk_get_sys if DT lookup fails.
> 
> The return check on of_clk_get_by_name takes (clk != NULL) as a
> successful DT lookup.  But it's not the case.  For any system that
> does not define clk lookup in device tree, ERR_PTR(-ENOENT) will be
> returned, and consequently, all the client drivers calling clk_get
> in their probe functions will fail to probe with error code -ENOENT
> returned.
> 
> Fix the issue by checking of_clk_get_by_name return with !IS_ERR(clk).
