ok, that was the scenario I was worried about (since unclk'd register
access tends to be insta-reboot and hard to debug)..  so I think it
should be ok to make dpu just ignore NULL clks.

Subject: [PATCH] drm/msm/dpu: ignore NULL clocks

This isn't an error.  Also the clk APIs handle the NULL case, so we can
just delete the check.
