I do not like the idea to set CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED in clock driver on clk
basis. If the clk is needed by some driver, why cannot the driver
enable it using clk API? Or if the clk is some fundamental one that
does not clearly belong to particular IP block and no driver wants to
manage it, we may want to not implement it in clock driver at all and
just leave it to bootloader to set it up for once.
