This one looks fine.

differences in behaviour how system or driver will be resumed.
yes true, here clk_prepare_enable will return 0 on successful attempt.
what do you suggest here, we should not return like this.?

So, the question is how did you test it?
It can fail, I am not able to produce clock failure issue. If you have any suggestion.
please let me know.
