During my testing it seemed enough, besides it looks clk framework is
doing the same as _omap4_enable_module.

Basically this is a call to _omap4_enable_module, and the latter will
"Enable the modulemode inside CLKCTRL".

However, _enable_clocks path which ends calling omap2_dflt_clk_enable
does the same thing with its clk->enable_reg field.

So in _enable:

        _enable_clocks(oh);
        if (soc_ops.enable_module)
                soc_ops.enable_module(oh);

The enable_module part seems redundant to me, since the module should
be already enabled by the first call to _enable_clocks.
