I understood from the code that OCPIF_SWSUP_IDLE with
clkops_omap2_dflt_wait in clock data means that then ICLK won't
autoidle at all when clock is enabled? Normally, when not using the
sidetone we want to have ICLK autoidling since then omap can idle when
using threshold based transfers and McBSP FIFO.

I definitely agree. I was thinking some virtual clock for sidetone but
that didn't sound good either since then both McBSP ICLK and virtual
sidetone clock would be modifying the same register. Anyway, some omap
device API for runtime autoidle bit setting sounds much better approach
in enable_st_clock callback than hacking with clock registers.
