Since clk_register_clkdev() is exported for modules the caller should get a pointer to the allocated resources. Otherwise the memory leak is guaranteed on the ->remove() stage.
The patch changes the prototype of the clk_register_clkdev() to return pointer to the allocated resources. The caller should take care of the returned variable and free allocated resources when needed. Together with the main change the users are updated too. The patch compile tested on x86, thus requires to be tested on touched architectures.
