What makes you think there's a leak here?  These are all devm_
allocations, so they're all freed when the device is.  If an error is
returned, the device is released and the memory freed.

You can argue that on successful initialization, there's no need to
keep the clkfreq array but this patch isn't the way you'd change that.
