Subject: [PATCH] clk: core: Potentially free connection id

Patch "clk: core: Copy connection id" made it so that the connector
id (con_id) is kstrdup_const'ed to cater to drivers that pass non-
constant connection ids. The patch added the corresponding kfree_const
to __clk_free_clk, but struct clk's can be freed also via __clk_put.
Add the kfree_const call to __clk_put and add comments to both
functions to remind that the logic in them should be kept in sync.

Yes, sorry I missed this.

Maybe a static __clk_free_mem function could be created instead of
comments asking to keep things in sync? But there are only 2 lines so
it's fine.
