What would be the proper error path?
What cleanup is required?

It should be noted that there are more deep rooted issues with the driver
that I have noticed. For one the driver behaves differently if the debugging
is on and when it is off.

Here is what the kernel reports with debugging off:

Note this is with the following devicetree entry:
        si5351: clock-generator {
                #address-cells = <1>;
                #size-cells = <0>;
                #clock-cells = <1>;
                compatible = "silabs,si5351a-msop";
                reg = <0x60>;
                status = "okay";

                /* connect xtal input to 27MHz reference */
                clocks = <&ref27>;

                /* connect xtal input as source of pll0 and pll1 */
                silabs,pll-source = <0 0>, <1 0>;

                clkout0: clkout0 {
                        reg = <0>;
                        silabs,drive-strength = <8>;
                        silabs,multisynth-source = <1>;
                        silabs,clock-source = <0>;
                        silabs,pll-master;
                        clock-frequency = <18432000>;
                 };

                clkout1: clkout1 {
                        reg = <1>;
                        silabs,drive-strength = <8>;
                        silabs,multisynth-source = <0>;
                        silabs,clock-source = <0>;
                        clock-frequency = <8000000>;
                };

                clkout2: clkout2 {
                        reg = <2>;
                        silabs,drive-strength = <8>;
                        silabs,multisynth-source = <0>;
                        silabs,clock-source = <0>;
                        silabs,pll-master;
                        clock-frequency = <12288000>;
                };
        };

I am losing hope that this driver is stable enough to even use in production.
