The driver uses devm_clk_get_enabled() which enables the clock and
registers a callback to automatically disable it when the device
is unbound.

Remove the redundant aml_sfc_disable_clk() call in the error paths
and remove callback.

[1/1] spi: amlogic: spifc-a4: Remove redundant clock cleanup
      https://git.kernel.org/broonie/misc/c/a00da54d06f4

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark
