* @dev: device for clock "consumer"
* @id: clock consumer ID
*
- * Returns a struct clk corresponding to the clock producer, or
+ * Context: May sleep.
+ *
+ * Return: a struct clk corresponding to the clock producer, or
* valid IS_ERR() condition containing errno. The implementation
* uses @dev and @id to determine the clock consumer, and thereby
* the clock producer. (IOW, @id may be identical strings, but
* clk_get may return different clock producers depending on @dev.)
*
- * Drivers must assume that the clock source is not enabled.
- *
- * devm_clk_get should not be called from within interrupt context.
+ * Drivers must assume that the clock source is neither prepared nor
+ * enabled.
*
* The clock will automatically be freed when the device is unbound
* from the bus.
* @dev: device for clock "consumer"
* @id: clock consumer ID
*
- * Behaves the same as devm_clk_get() except where there is no clock producer.
- * In this case, instead of returning -ENOENT, the function returns NULL.
+ * Context: May sleep.
+ *
+ * Return: a struct clk corresponding to the clock producer, or
+ * valid IS_ERR() condition containing errno. The implementation
+ * uses @dev and @id to determine the clock consumer, and thereby
+ * the clock producer. If no such clk is found, it returns NULL
+ * which serves as a dummy clk. That's the only difference compared
+ * to devm_clk_get().
+ *
+ * Drivers must assume that the clock source is neither prepared nor
