Heh, yeah I did miss that stupid thing :(

Yes, as we will fail to find the OPP device in that case with -ENODEV
and so won't even print a warning.

Also if the OPP table was previously added as a response to
dev_pm_opp_set_clkname(), then we won't free it as well. So yes, it
should work just fine.
