I deliberately left them out as they are not needed on sun6i, once the blocks
are setup ahb access is not necessary, but it seems that the ahb_gate bits
in sun4i / sun5i / sun7i double as a reset. Toggling them on / off / on breaks
the mode, while toggling module clocks on / off / on only causes a glitch.

Since the sun6i has a separate reset controller, the clock gates seem to really
only control ahb access which is not necessary once the mode has been set up.

Regards,

Hans
