The code intends to return -EPROBE_DEFER only when the clock lookup fails with that specific error. However, without IS_ERR() the check: if (PTR_ERR(max98090->mclk) == -EPROBE_DEFER) is called unconditionally, including when devm_clk_get() succeeds and returns a valid pointer. Calling PTR_ERR() on a valid pointer reinterprets its address as a signed long; the result is arbitrary and is almost never equal to -EPROBE_DEFER, so the check silently does nothing in the success case. When devm_clk_get() fails with any error other than -EPROBE_DEFER the check is also skipped, leaving max98090->mclk holding an error pointer with no indication to the caller. This means a deferred probe will never actually be triggered for this device, and any non-EPROBE_DEFER clock error is silently swallowed with the error pointer left in the mclk field. Fix this by adding the missing IS_ERR() guard around the PTR_ERR() call, matching the pattern already used in the sibling max98088 and wm8960 drivers.
