In function jz4740_dma_probe(), the memory allocated by
clk_get() is not released on the error path that ret, which holds
the return value of dma_async_device_register(), is not NULL.
This will result in a memory leak bug.

I dont think we cna cal it mem leak, it seems your ref counting of clock
resource is imbalance as you dont free up which eventually would lead to mem
leak. Also dabove description needs a bit of cleanup please

Maybe use devm_clk_get() since the same clk_put() call is missing in the
remove callback.
