In this case, should it set host->biu_clk to NULL or are clk_disable
and clk_put guaranteed to handle an IS_ERR value?
I keep saying this.  NULL must be treated as a valid reutrn value from
clk_get() and must not use this as a sentinel.  The clk namespace is
that errors are indicated with IS_ERR(clk) returning true.  Everything
else must be assumed to be valid by drivers.
