clkdev: don't fail clkdev_alloc() if over-sized

Browse Source 
Don't fail clkdev_alloc() if the strings are over-sized. In this case,
the entry will not match during lookup, so its useless. However, since
code fails if we return NULL leading to boot failure, return a dummy
entry with the connection and device IDs set to "bad".

Leave the warning so these problems can be found, and the useless
wasteful clkdev registrations removed.
