When the best clk is searched, we iterate over all possible clk.

If we find a better match, the previous one, if any, needs to be freed.
If a better match has already been found, we still need to free the new
one, otherwise it leaks.

I think that some clk_put() are also missing somewhere else in the driver
but won't be able to investigate further.

v2: No code change
    Add Cc: stable          [Andi Shyti, as suggested for patch 1/2]
    Add R-b tags
