No, clk_prepare_enable() is not ignored. It is called.

What is ignored is the return status, because it does not matter. It
cannot possibly fail, it is simple MMIO access within internals of the SoC.

Anyway, please rephrase the commit msg.

IMO, I have doubts whether this is a fix, because actual error cannot
happen in practice.
