Hi Maciej,

When a driver is going to use clk_bulk_get() function, it has to
initialize an array of clk_bulk_data, by filling its id fields.
Add a new function to the core, which dynamically allocates
clk_bulk_data array and fills its id fields. Add clk_bulk_free()
function, which frees the array allocated by clk_bulk_alloc() function.
Add a managed version of clk_bulk_alloc().
Seeing how every subsequent patch ends up with the roughly this same stanza:
x = devm_clk_bulk_alloc(dev, num, names);
if (IS_ERR(x)
return PTR_ERR(x);
ret = devm_clk_bulk_get(dev, x, num);
I wonder if it might be better to simply implement:
int devm_clk_bulk_alloc_get(dev, &x, num, names)
that does the whole lot in one go, and let drivers that want to do more
fiddly things continue to open-code the allocation.
But perhaps that's an abstraction too far... I'm not all that familiar
with the lie of the land here.

Either way, is it intentional not returning an ERR_PTR() value in this
case? Since NULL will pass an IS_ERR() check, it seems a bit fragile for
an allocation call to apparently succeed when the whole API is
configured out (and I believe introducing new uses of IS_ERR_OR_NULL()
is in general strongly discouraged.)
