There is a potential execution path in which function
of_find_compatible_node() returns NULL. In such a case,
we end up having a NULL pointer dereference when accessing
pointer *nfc_np* in function of_clk_get().
So, we better don't take any chances and fix this by null
checking pointer *nfc_np* before calling of_clk_get().

Changes in v2:
- Add Fixes tag to the commit log.
- Remove blank line before null checking nfc_np.
