commit 6579c8d97ad7 ("clk: Mark fwnodes when their clock provider is added")
revealed that clk/bcm/clk-raspberrypi.c driver calls
devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider(), with a NULL dev->of_node, which resulted in a
NULL pointer dereference in of_clk_add_provider() when calling
fwnode_dev_initialized().

Returning 0 is reducing the if conditions in driver code and is being
consistent with the CONFIG_OF=n inline stub that returns 0 when CONFIG_OF
is disabled. The downside is that drivers will maybe register clkdev lookups
when they don't need to and waste some memory.

Please don't send patches as replies to previous threads. It makes it
harder to find the patch at a glance of all threads.

It also seems to be a

Fixes: 3c9ea42802a1 ("clk: Mark fwnodes when their clock provider is added/removed")

so can you please have both Fixes tags?

This would be the second approach, where we don't return an error when
one calls devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider with a NULL of_node, but instead
we just return 0 and skip the logic in the core and the drivers.

With the Fixes tag updated please send To: gregkh@ to pick up as the
problematic patch (6579c8d97ad7) is in the driver tree and not the clk
tree, and add my tag
