It is, but to ensure there is no NULL clk passed at the kref_get(&clk->ref)
line everything got moved under a common "if (clk) { }".
The code will look like this:
-----------
if (clk) {
if (!try_module_get(clk->owner))
return 0;
kref_get(&clk->ref);
}
------------
If preferred I could make it:
------------
if (clk && !try_module_get(clk->owner))
return 0;
if (clk)
kref_get(&clk->ref);
------------
