It's for migrating to generic clk framework API.
The helper functions help cases clk_enable/clk_disable is used
in non-atomic context.
For example, Call clk_enable in probe and clk_disable in remove.

As discussed previously, there's the need on some platforms to run some
parts of clk_enable() in contexts which can schedule. The solution
which was agreed upon was to provide clk_prepare() and clk_unprepare()
to contain this parts, while clk_enable() and clk_disable() perform
the atomic part.
This patch provides a common definition for clk_prepare() and
clk_unprepare() in linux/clk.h, and provides an upgrade path for
existing implementation and drivers: drivers can start using
clk_prepare() and clk_unprepare() once this patch is merged without
having to wait for platform support. Platforms can then start to
provide these additional functions.
Eventually, HAVE_CLK_PREPARE will be removed from the kernel, and
everyone will have to provide these new APIs.

This can be used for other arm platforms too as discussed
on the linux-arm-kernel list.
Also check the return value with IS_ERR and return PTR_ERR
as suggested by Russell King.

clk_get and clk_put may not be used from within interrupt context. Change
comment to this function.
