[PATCH 3/4] clk: Provide always-on clock support

Lots of platforms contain clocks which if turned off would prove fatal.
The only way to recover from these catastrophic failures is to restart
the board(s).  Now, when a clock is registered with the framework it is
compared against a list of provided always-on clock names which must be
kept ungated.  If it matches, we enable the existing CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED
flag, which will prevent the common clk framework from attempting to
gate it during the clk_disable_unused() procedure.
