[PATCH] clk: samsung: Changed return behavior of samsung_clk_init

Instead of invoking panic, the samsung_clk_init returns a NULL
pointer to indicate that an error has occurred. All the drivers
using this function were changed appropriately (in this case
just the clk-exynos5410).

This patch was suggested by Tomasz Figa in
