The patch didn't check the return value clk_get() but clk_get_parent().
Here's the implementation:

	struct clk *__clk_get_parent(struct clk *clk)
	{
		return !clk ? NULL : clk->parent;
	}

Note that clk_get_parent() in simply a locked version of the above. That
will obviously only return ERR_PTR() if clk->parent happens to be set to
one such value, which I don't think will ever happen.
