You have to prepare_enable() before using get_rate(). Else, it is not
guaranteed to work:
"clk_get_rate - obtain the current clock rate (in Hz) for a clock source.
                This is only valid once the clock source has been enabled."

It may work right now because the clock is enabled elsewhere. But that
may change at some point in time (we had the issue on at91).
