[PATCH] clk: Properly handle notifier return values

Notifiers may return NOTIFY_(OK|DONE|STOP|BAD). The CCF uses an
inconsistent mix of checking against NOTIFY_STOP or NOTIFY_BAD.
This inconsistency leaves errors undetected in some cases:
clk_set_parent() calls __clk_speculate_rates(), which stops when it
hits a NOTIFIER_BAD (STOP is ignored), and passes this value back to the
caller.
clk_set_parent() compares this return value against NOTIFY_STOP only,
ignoring NOTIFY_BAD returns.

Use NOTIFY_STOP_MASK to detect a negative notifier return value and
document all four return value options.
