[PATCH 1/2] clk: Fix __clk_get access to already freed owner field.

From: Alban Browaeys
Date: Thu Feb 05 2015 - 13:25:30 EST


On the second call to __set_clk_parents from of_clk_set_defaults, here
when registering the second fimc device the kernel OOPS in an "unhandled
paging request at virtual address 6b6b6b77". This in __clk_get when
dereferencing clk->owner.

Move the clk free in the kref managed _clk_release call instead of
plain __clk_put.

Fixes: 035a61c314eb ("clk: Make clk API return per-user struct clk
instances)
