To elaborate it a bit further, devm_* routines are there to make our
lives simple.
And they do it by allowing us to skip error handling.

So in your case because you are doing devm_clk_get(), you don't have to put
the clk on errors or in remove() routine. The device core will do that for you
once the device/driver bond finishes.

Also, what about clk_enable/prepare for these clks? You don't need them ?
