[PATCH] clk: moxart: fix refcount leak

[PATCH] clk: moxart: fix refcount leak

[Alexander A. Klimov]

Every value returned from of_clk_get() is supposed to be cleaned up
via clk_put() once not needed anymore.
The values here are used only for error checking,
but weren't cleaned up until now.

So this immediately drops the reference to the clk after of_clk_get() is
called. Can we just remove these two of_clk_get() calls since they don't
appear to be used?
