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 callings/of_clk_add_provider()/of_clk_add_hw_provider()

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.
