Geert,

A bot reported that if I jump to out_release may try to free a clock
if some instances where priv isn't defined.
Currently, the priv->clk isn't freed either.  I have heard some
back-and-forth discussions in other threads on whether or not devm
functions auto free or not.

I'm fine with sending a V5 to make the free for the refclock happen
only when the priv has successfully initialized.  Should I also add
one for freeing priv->clk and change all the other goto out_release
commands to point to this new section?

I am thinking it would like something like:

free_refclk:
    clk_disable_unprepare(priv->refclk);
free_clk;
    clk_disable_unprepare(priv->clk);
out_release:
    free_netdev(ndev);
    ....
