Subject: [PATCH v2 09/11] clk: imx: scu: fix kfree() of static memory on setting driver_override

The driver_override field from platform driver should not be initialized
from static memory (string literal) because the core later kfree() it,
for example when driver_override is set via sysfs.

Use dedicated helper to set driver_override properly.

This is wrong - should be ERR_PTR.
