the problem is not kdwc3_remove_core() accessing registers, but
dwc3_remove() _does_ access registers during remove. If you just
mopdrobe -r dwc3-keystone without removing dwc3.ko first, then
kdwc3_remove_core() will cause dwc3.ko to be removed (because of
platform_driver_unregister()) and, since clocks have already been
disabled, then we'd die :-)
