[PATCH] ARM: davinci: clock: Correct return values for API functions

Fix the values returned by the publicly used functions.
These function should return 0 when they are called with clk == NULL in
similar manner as the clock API does to avoid different behavior in drivers
used by daVinci and other architectures.

Hi Sekhar,

This issue is visible when using generic drivers like ASoC simnple card for
audio support.
They rely on the fact that these functions will not return with error in case
of clk == NULL.

Regards,
Peter
