That's actually a bug.  Never clk_put() a devm_clk_get()'d clock.
devm_clk_put() is what you want if provided.  However, I think
this clk_put() call is useless here.

And also useless here, as the whole point of the devm_* stuff is to
clean up the resources that were claimed on probe failure or when
the device is unbound from its driver.
