Looking at this patch, it doesn't seem to make sense from a hardware point 
of view.  If you look at the OMAP4430 TRM Rev. AE, Table 23-1166 "Clocks 
and Resets", the 48MHz clock input is listed as an "Optional functional 
clock".  The main functional clock is listed as "INIT_960M_FCLK", which 
according to the same TRM, Section 3.6.3.9.1 "Overview", is an alias for 
the clock we call "dpll_usb_clkdcoldo_ck".

So if any clock should be the main functional clock in the hwmod data, 
shouldn't it be dpll_usb_clkdcoldo_ck?  The goal with the hwmod data 
is/was to have it match the hardware.

...

More to the point, I guess I don't see what the problem is with 
adding a few lines to the ocp2scp driver to control the "phy_48m" optional 
clock via the clock framework.  Is there some reason why you 
couldn't prepare & enable it after the pm_runtime_get_*(), 
and disable and unprepare it before the pm_runtime_put_*() ?
