Subject: [PATCH] omap: Avoid crashes in the case of hwmod misconfiguration

omap hwmod is really sensitive to hwmod misconfiguration.
Getting a minor clock wrong always ended up in a crash.
Attempt to be more resilient by not assigning variables with
error codes and then attempting to use them.

Without this patch, missing a clock ends up with something like this:
omap_hwmod: ehrpwm0: cannot clk_get opt_clk ehrpwm0_tbclk!
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000002a!
pgd = c0004000!
