It sounds like maybe you need this patch?

bdcf1dc25324 ("clk: Evict unregistered clks from parent caches")

or 

4368a1539c6b ("drm/msm: Depopulate platform on probe failure")

I vaguelly recall that the display driver wasn't removing clks becaues
it wasn't removing devices when probe defer happened and then we had
dangling clks in the parent cache confusing things.
