Got it in this place.

Thanks for your reply, I think the benefit of this change maybe just 
simplify the code.

Because the return value is never equal to 0, so the check in here is 
redundant.

We can make the patch like this:

	priv->irq = platform_get_irq(pdev, 0);
	if (priv->irq < 0) {
		ret = priv->irq;
		goto err_clk_unprepare;
	}

     If you think this is ok, I will send V2 for you. If you think these 
change is meaningless,

just dropped this.
