It is already taken care by of_clk_add_provider() and of_clk_del_provider() Sorry for not investigating this before. Just left out from my eyes somehow. Actually I can cleanup clk-s2mps11.c driver as well, but only thing is I can validate it, as I do not have platform to test it. It should be trivial changes. If somebody can help me out in validation I can submit the patch for clk-s2mps11.c driver as well.
