Perhaps, but this is a genuine error, so it is OK to break the
Ethernet driver, isn't it? We don't want errors to be silently
ignored.

Not having a device is one thing, but having a device that does not work is bad.

Also I have tried to keep -ENOSYS for cases where the driver does not
support the operation. We should be very clear in clk-uclass.h as to
what errors are returned. At present I don't see ENOSYS mentioned. At
the very least we should update the docs if certain behaviour is
expected. I would also expect us to have a sandbox test for it.
