Hmm.... I think the following change may be better?

probe() {
        ....
+       /*
+        * Initially mark the clock to NULL for all platforms so that later
+        * clk_prepare_enable() will ignore and return 0 for non-clock cases.
+        */
+       ssi_private->clk = NULL;
        .....
        fsl_ssi_imx_probe();
}

In this way, all platforms, not confined to imx any more, will be able
to call clk_prepare_enable(). Then we don't need an extra platform check
before calling it.
