This doesn't seem right. If you're going to change to to a different
clock source anyway, why would you even want to know what it was set
before that? Isn't that completely irrelevant?

But if you really need this, perhaps a combination of clk_get() and
clk_is_match() would be a better approach? Perhaps best to let Mike
and Stephen share their feelings about this kind of API.

Also, there's nothing about this that would be device-managed, so the
devm_ prefix on the function name is misleading.

You use this from clock consumers, so clk-provider.h is not the right
place for it. Also, you'll want to add a dummy implementation for the
case where CONFIG_COMMON_CLK is not set.
