Use the error handling code at the end of the function, rather than
returning directly.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@r@
identifier x;
@@

kfree(x)

@@
identifier r.x;
expression E1!=0,E2,E3,E4;
statement S;
@@

(
if (<+...x...+>) S
|
if (...) { ... when != kfree(x)
               when != if (...) { ... kfree(x); ... }
               when != x = E3
* return E1;
}
... when != x = E2
if (...) { ... when != x = E4
 kfree(x); ... return ...; }
)
// </smpl>

I wonder if the error handling code at the end of the function should be
calling clk_put as well?  In that case, having a separate label for this
case would be useful.  Otherwise, one of error_request_irq and error_get_clk
can be deleted

Applied, thanks.

The MSM implementation for it is simply a nop, so it's not going to
really matter one way or the other. In terms of general consistency it
might be worth implementing.

I expect that there are probably quite a few drivers that don't balance
out their clk_get()'s with clk_put()'s however, perhaps this is another
semantic patch candidate? At the very least it would be interesting to
see the statistics.

Today, at least.  Hopefully this will get better, since we can turn off
our clocks.
