Yeah, that was done on purpose with Tomi knowning well that limitation.

The issue was mainly due to the lack of proper parent / child 
relationship between the DSS (the whole subsystem) and the DSS children 
at that time.

I think that Tomi posted a series to fix that for 3.4. So if we ensure 
that every DSS IPs are children of the DSS, then pm_runtime will always 
ensure that the DSS will be enabled each time a submodule is used.

So the right fix is to put back the proper iclk (l3_div) to the DSS 
instead of the dss_fck.

The current OMAP4 DSS clock setup is clearly a hack that should be fixed.
