The specific situation was for MS-CAN on PowerPC, but it inspired
my outlining an approach to "shared clock gates".  See an example
implementation towards the end of the message with both the
clk-gate.c extension, as well as rather generic example use.

My approach turned out to not be needed, but it might serve as a
starting point for you.  You'd have to add support for static
declaration though, but this should be straight forward.
