Hi Yizhuo,

This is a slightly interesting case.

From an 'obviously' correct point of view, it makes sense to
always handle the errors and avoid the potentially uninitialised
cases.

From the point of view of a 'fix' we need to show if these can
actually happen.  These calls are regmap-mmio so the error
path is in clock enable / disable if there is a clock provided.
Looking at mfd/stm-timers.c there is a clock called "int" provided.
Now it's possible that clock enable can never fail, but that is
getting too hard to chase down.

As such, I think this fix is worthwhile, but I'm not going to
mark it for stable without a report of it actually being
possible to trigger it.

I'll leave this on the list for a little longer though as I'd definitely
like an ack from Benjamin or someone else more familiar with the driver
than I am.

Thanks,

Jonathan
