[PATCH v3 4/5] clk: Assign module owner of a clock being registered

[Sylwester Nawrocki]

Assign module owner of a driver of a device passed to _clk_register()
and __clk_register() functions so the module_{get,put} calls in
__clk_get(), __clk_put() can have required effect.

Initially I had an 'owner' field added to struct clk_init_data so it can
be set explicitly in clock providers.  But this required modifications
of all users of (devm_)clk_register() as struct clk_init_data instance
was in most cases an unitialized stack variable.  This would also require
adding yet another argument to various clk_register_* functions
registering the standard clocks.  So I went for assigning clk->owner from
dev->driver->owner.  The disadvantages are that dereferencing dev->driver
may be potentially unsafe when not holding struct device::mutex.  And
there might be cases where clk->owner will need to be NULL.  One option
is to set dev argument of clk_register_*() to NULL for that, but it
predates devm_*.

Presumably a requirement could be added that callers of clk_register*()
must ensure dev->driver won't change during a call to these functions ?
