We still need some help and clarification from those who are very
familiar with this sort of drivers or/and can test this particular
driver. mxic_nfc_clk_enable() is the complementary function for
mxic_nfc_clk_disable(). No other functions invoke
clk_prepare_enable()/clk_disable_unprepare() in the driver. Unlikely
somebody in its environment does that since driver specific clocks are
dealt with. At the moment the driver invokes mxic_nfc_clk_disable() on
error handling paths in probe, in remove and in mxic_nfc_set_freq().
mxic_nfc_clk_enable() is called just by mxic_nfc_set_freq() that
moreover does this after calling mxic_nfc_clk_disable() first. So, we
did not find any place in the driver that invokes mxic_nfc_clk_enable()
prior to mxic_nfc_clk_disable(). Basing on this we added
mxic_nfc_clk_enable() just after getting clocks. As I explained in the
previous large e-mail, we may be wrong in our understanding of the
driver environment or/and at specification of requirements being
checked. It would be great if you will point out on our mistakes.
