We _do have_ Rockchip clock drivers serving multiple socs already
(rk3188+rk3066 for example) and as patterns are duplicated often from
one existing driver to a new one, I think it makes sense to have the
error handling done correctly.

So doing
init_data = of_device_get_match_data(&pdev->dev);
if (init_data)
return -EINVAL;
as before.

If due to some strange coincidence the condition is triggered
this would cause a null-ptr-dereference with the direct call to
init_data->scripts
below, which might or might not be hidden due to the (early-)console
being up yet, where with correct error handling a system might at
least come up to a point to complain about a missing clock driver.
