Hello! Thanks for this commit!
However, there are a few comments...

This description is a bit confusing, please reword it, something like...

"Function clk_bulk_prepare_enable() returns 0 for success or a negative
number for error. Fix this code style issue."

In any case, you're not fixing any bad logic issue here, as the function
will never return anything > 0.

What you're fixing is a common pattern usage issue, so the Fixes tag can be
removed since it's not really useful to schedule this commit for backport
over older stable versions.
