What does a NULL return from of_clk_get() mean?  Where is this defined?
Well, it's a valid path if (np) is NULL. I'll add an IS_ERR(clk) and
resubmit.
Hang on - what logic are you trying to achieve here?  Wouldn't:

	if (np)
		clk = of_clk_get(np, 0);
	else
		clk = clk_get_sys("smp_twd", NULL);

be sufficient?  If we have DT, why would we ever want to fall back to
"smp_twd" ?
I'm just trying to make sure I have a clock so I can do cpufreq operations.

Your solution works and is sufficient. Thanks.
