This should be IS_ERR()
So it means the clk_get() will never return NULL even when clk structure
is NULL in clk lookup entry. Right?
It is not the drivers business to know whether NULL is valid or not.
clk_get() is defined to either return an error pointer, or a cookie
which the rest of the clk API must accept.
If an implementation decides that clk_get() can return NULL and deals
with that in the rest of the API (eg, to mean 'there is no clock but
don't fail for this') then drivers must not reject that.
If a driver rejects NULL then it is performing checks outside of the
definition of the clk API, and making assumptions about the nature of
valid cookies.
