This structure must be zeroed, because it's field 'hw->core' is used as
'parent' in 'clk_core_fill_parent_index()', but it will be uninitialized.
This happens, because when this struct is not zeroed, pointer 'hw' is
"initialized" by garbage, which is valid pointer, but points to some
garbage. So 'hw' will be dereferenced, but 'core' contains some random
data which will be interpreted as a pointer. The following backtrace is
result of dereference of such pointer:

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
