Indeed, the diff is bit hard to follow and I got confused. With th patch
applied, things are more clear. Sorry about that

While correct, this code could simplified a bit

* unless the prepare_list is used anywhere without starting with a list_add(),
reseting the list pointer is not necessary. It should be possible to remove the
list_del_init(). the 'err' label becomes just 'clk_core_unprepare(core->parent)'

* rolling back change under 'if' or 'goto label' are both fine IMO. It would be
easier to follow if only one method was used inside a single function, though.
