Ok. The first argument to clk_get() really shouldn't be NULL. It
should be the device pointer for the device that is associated
with the clk you want to get. The clock name (second argument to
clk_get()) should be device specific and not some globally unique
identifier. It seems that you're using the clk_get() API
incorrectly.
