When I noticed that fail, we had some restrictions in SCU firmware, so
that the clock cannot be enabled if the power domain was down. Still,
at that time I noticed it is redundant to have functions that checks if
a clock is NULL or not, since the clk_* functions are already doing
this.

I add specific checks only in the vblank functions, because those
functions can be called before calling the pipe enable/disable
functions which enables the spefic power domain and, at this point, the
clock enable/disable calls should not fail.
