This is true, but I think the patch should also mention that the clock 
is enabled by hispi_spi_nor_prep() and disabled by 
hispi_spi_nor_unprep(). So at remove time it is not possible to have the 
clock enabled.

The big point is not that the probe disabled the clock, but that every 
path would make sure to disable the clock, so it will already be 
disabled when remove is called.
