Not sure I follow.

Before this patchset the code was doing
25 rt2x00dev->clk = clk_get(&pdev->dev, NULL);
24 if (IS_ERR(rt2x00dev->clk))
23 rt2x00dev->clk = NULL;
I changed it to use devm_clk_get_optional since that's what it looks
like here. It's not returning under failure so I assume that means
it's optional.
OTOH all downstream OpenWrt users of this code (as well as
mt7620a.dtsi here) do specify a clock. _optional might be a mistake.
Maybe Stanislaw knows more.
