The recent refactoring of where runtime PM is enabled done in commit f1eb4e792bb1 ("spi: spi-cadence-quadspi: Enable pm runtime earlier to avoid imbalance") made the fact that when we do a pm_runtime_disable() in the error paths of probe() we can trigger a runtime disable which in turn results in duplicate clock disables. Early on in the probe function we do a pm_runtime_get_noresume() since the probe function leaves the device in a powered up state but in the error path we can't assume that PM is enabled so we also manually disable everything, including clocks. This means that when runtime PM is active both it and the probe function release the same reference to the main clock for the IP, triggering warnings from the clock subsystem:

[ 8.693719] clk:75:7 already disabled [ 8.693791] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 185 at /usr/src/kernel/drivers/clk/clk.c:1188 clk_core_disable+0xa0/0xb ... [ 8.694261] clk_core_disable+0xa0/0xb4 (P) [ 8.694272] clk_disable+0x38/0x60 [ 8.694283] cqspi_probe+0x7c8/0xc5c [spi_cadence_quadspi] [ 8.694309] platform_probe+0x5c/0xa4

Avoid this confused ownership by moving the pm_runtime_get_noresume() to after the last point at which the probe() function can fail.
