The init functions do not return any error. They behave as the following:

Change that by converting the init functions to return an error conforming
to the CLOCKSOURCE_OF_RET prototype.

Proper error handling (rollback, errno value) will be changed later case
by case, thus this change just return back an error or success in the init
function.

Actually, this is fixed for mxs [1] (sorry the Cc script is misbehaving).

This patch needs rework as it is changing (incompletely) two files that have 
different
maintainers.

Let me resend the mps2 driver.

Thanks.
