3.16.7-ckt5 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me 
know.

------------------

From: Tomeu Vizoso <[email protected]>

commit 10cdfe54dab034311c8e2fad9ba2dffbe616caa9 upstream.

As __clk_release could call kfree on clk and then we wouldn't have a safe way
of getting the module that owns the clock.
