To elaborate more, the

1. call all devm_func()
2. call only non-devm_func()

is the correct order.

Hence in this case the driver can be worked around easily (by
shuffling the order in ->probe() to call devm_ first), but as I said
looking into implementation of the _unregister() I'm pretty sure that
clock management should be in sdhci-pltfm, rather than in all callers
who won't need the full customization.

Hope this helps to understand my point.
