[PATCH V4 1/2] clk: bcm2835: mark enabled clocks with CLK_IS_CRITICAL

From: Martin Sperl <kernel at martin.sperl.org>

The bcm2835 firmware enables several clocks and plls before
booting the linux kernel.

These plls should never get disabled as it may result in a
stopped system clock and more.

So during probing we check if the clock is enabled
and if it is then mark that clock with CLK_IS_CRITICAL.

As a consequence this will also enable the corresponding
parent plls and pll-divs.

This is intended as a stop-gap until CLK_ENABLE_HAND_OFF
becomes available, at which point it should be used instead.
