No, that is the same situation.  The clock is originally allocated
with "devm_clk_get_optional()", i.e. it is a managed resource.
 If the probe fails, and it does in both of these error paths,
Linux deallocates the newly formed device structure and all of its resources.
Perhaps I am missing something?

Agreed.
