applied to my clk branch for 3.20

As I already talked about with Doug on IRC (last year), I see this as a sort-
of stop-gap solution till we know the suspend requirements of the older/other 
Rockchip SoCs that do suspend slightly different and can generalize the whole 
clk suspend handling at this point.
