I think that realistically this will never happen.

We're getting the clk_main clock's handle at probe time (or fail and get out),
then the PWM clock never has the CLK_GET_RATE_NOCACHE flag, as there wouldn't
be any reason to not cache the rates for this clock.
But even if we had the CLK_GET_RATE_NOCACHE flag, it wouldn't change much, as
our validation actually happens at probe time...

This means that our call to clk_get_rate is guaranteed to have a not NULL
pointer to this clock's `struct clk_core` and, unless the declaration of
this clock in the clock controller driver was wrong, for it, or for its
parent, the branch...

	if (!core->num_parents || core->parent)
		return core->rate;

...is always satisfied, so, in the end, this instance of clk_get_rate() can't
really return zero.
If you got such an issue, I suggest to check what the problem is, as it is
likely to be outside of this driver.


...that, besides the fact that the proposed code is incorrect, as clk_get_rate()
returns an `unsigned long`, so `rate` can never be less than zero, anyway.
