I think so, yes.

Of course, you are right!

I assume that's because the runtime PM errors in clk_pm_runtime_get()
and friends, are being propagated to the callers? Especially because
the runtime PM core returns error codes, in cases when runtime PM
hasn't been enabled for the device.

Yes, something like that. Apologize, I was clearly being too vague.

My point is, we don't need to invent a specific clock provider flag
for this. Instead the clock core could just at clock registration
check if runtime PM is enabled for the device (pm_runtime_enabled()),.
and from that assign an internal clock core flag to keep track of
whether runtime PM should be managed or not.
