With the current OMAP clock code, it isn't sufficient to use a mutex here.  
Your underlying functions have to read, modify, and write a register that 
is also touched by clock functions like clk_set_rate(), which take the 
clockfw spinlock and not the mutex.  This is potentially racy and could 
result in inconsistencies between the internal clock tree data and the 
hardware settings.

While it is true that these functions are currently only called during PM 
init, I'd rather not commit code that is subject to known races into the 
tree.

So, before applying this patch, the mutexes have been converted into 
spinlocks.  I would appreciate it if you could help test this.  Updated 
patch follows, which has been queued for 2.6.39 as part of the 
'clk_autoidle_a_2.6.39' branch of git://git.pwsan.com/linux-2.6.

Subject: [PATCH] omap: clock: Add allow_idle/deny_idle support in clkops

On OMAP various clock nodes (dpll's, mx post dividers, interface clocks)
support hardware level autogating which can be controlled from
software.
Support such functionality by adding two new function pointer
allow_idle and deny_idle in the clkops structure.

These function pointers can be populated for any clock
node which supports hardware level autogating.

Also add 2 new functions (omap_clk_enable_auotidle and
omap_clk_disable_autoidle) which can be called from
architecture specific PM core code, if hardware level
autogating (for all supported clock nodes) is to be
enabled or disabled.
