The existing pm_clk_add() allows to pass a clock by con_id. However,
when referring to a specific clock from DT, no con_id is available.

Add pm_clk_add_clk(), which allows to specify the struct clk * directly.

You need __clk_get(clk) here, otherwise when you will be removing clocks
you'll be dropping a reference that does not belong to you (as yiou have
not taken it).

No, I don't ;)

pm_clk_add_clk is intended to be used with valid pointer on clk,
which means clk_get() has been called already. In our case:
clk = of_clk_get(dev->of_node, i));
ret = pm_clk_add_clk(dev, clk);

It's just a different way to fill list of clocks for device,
once pm_clk_add_clk() is called - PM clock framework will be the owner
of clock.

No, this is not how the rest of refcounted APIs work in the kernel. You
do not take over other's references and if you need to store pointer to
refcounted object you are responsible for taking your own reference. See
how we work with device structures, OF nodes, etc, etc.

The proper pattern here should be (unless the driver wants to hold on to
the clock for its own purposes):

clk = of_clk_get(dev->of_node, i));
ret = pm_clk_add_clk(dev, clk);
clk_put(clk);

with pm_clk_add_clk() taking and managing _its own_ reference and the
caller (driver) managing _its_ reference.

So FWIW strong NAK here from me.

Ok. I'll update and resend.
