Subject: [PATCH] clk: Fix memory leak in clk_unregister()

Memory allocated in alloc_clk() for 'struct clk' and
'const char *con_id' while invoking clk_register() is never freed
in clk_unregister(), resulting in kmemleak showing the following
backtrace.

  backtrace:
    [<00000000546f5dd0>] kmem_cache_alloc+0x18c/0x270

Fix it here.
