Hi Krzysztof,

I realize that there's a mistake in this patch through your reply.

There's two way to fix this one:
1) replace err_pm_get with err_clock label when pm_runtime_get_sync fails.
2) replace pm_runtime_get_sync with pm_runtime_resume_and_get and remove
redundant label(err_clock).

I take 2) on v2 for it makes codes more clearer in a way.

Thanks.
