If share_count is 1 it means that someone else is using the clock and
we can't disable it.

Please try running the series without this patch. When the extern
audio clock is enabled, share_count is 1. Later the the spdif clock
(the one that is shared with extern audio clock) is disabled by the
CCF as it is not used, which makes the extern audio clock to be also
disabled, which is not what we want.

What would you suggest?
