we must make sure pm_runtime_put/get are paired and _put is called in
any case. Looking around a bit:
I think a good solution would be along this lines:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-omap/34ab5f0b78c2869cc43797a72d6a2f40d9b246f3.camel@xxxxxxxxxxx/T/#u
using devm_clk_get_prepared() things can be simplified.
