I'm not sure what you mean here. There's no next error message in the
code as far as I'm aware.

If you mean that I'd rather have something like

clk = of_clk_get(cn, 0);
if (!IS_ERR(clk))
	rate = clk_get_rate(clk);
else
	of_property_read_u32(cn, "clock-frequency", &rate));

if (!rate)
	pr_err()

Then, yes, it makes sense. I'll resend a version
