[Maybe the third time will be the charm. -Alex] If CONFIG_COMMON_CLK_DEBUG is defined, clk_debug_create_one() is called to populate a debugfs directory with a few entries that are common for all clock types. If an error happens after creating the first one debugfs_remove() is called on the clock's directory. The problem with this is that no cleanup is done on the debugfs files already created in that directory, so the directory never actually gets removed. This problem is silently ignored. Fix this by calling debugfs_remove_recursive() instead. Reset the clk->dentry field to null afterward, to ensure it can't be mistaken as a valid pointer.
