clk: microchip: check for null return of devm_kzalloc()
[ Upstream commit e2e6a217a84d09785848a82599729c9a41566e3a ]
Because of the possible failure of devm_kzalloc(), name might be NULL and
will cause null pointer dereference later.
Therefore, it might be better to check it and directly return -ENOMEM.
