This is unsafe - if the clock domain can not be found, you leave the
union pointing at the string, and there's no way for this to prevent
the clock from being registered.
The result is that:

and similar places will pass the pointer to the string, potentially
causing an oops, or worse, data corruption due to scribbing over
someone elses memory.
So I don't think this patch is acceptable as-is.
