If both 'clk_ipg' and 'clk_per' are NULL, we return an un-init value.
So set 'err' to 0, to return success in such a case.
Thanks for the patch, a similar one has been posted before:

Another way to fix it is to remove the NULL checks for 'clk_ipg' and
'clk_per' that been added in commit d9cead75b1c6.

They look useless to me because 'clk_prepare_enable()' returns 0 if it is
passed a NULL pointer.
ACK, while the common clock framework's clk_prepare_enable() can handle
NULL pointers, the clock framework used on the mcf5441x doesn't.
Huh?  It looks like it just uses the regular stuff?
