[PATCH] counter: ti-eqep: Fix runtime PM imbalance in ti_eqep_probe()

[Wentao Liang]

In ti_eqep_probe(), runtime PM is enabled and acquired via
pm_runtime_get_sync(dev). However, if devm_clk_get_enabled() fails,
the function returns directly without calling pm_runtime_put_sync()
and pm_runtime_disable(), leaving the runtime PM usage count and
enable state unbalanced.

Add the missing pm_runtime_put_sync() and pm_runtime_disable() calls
on the clock error path.

Having manual cleanup immediately after a devm call is not a good sign as
it will be out of order.  Use devm_pm_runtime_enable() and consider if the
pm_runtime_get_sync() that the put is reversing is actually needed.
I suspect not.
