[PATCH] clk: vf610: don't stop enabled clocks in suspend

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for the review!

Our goal is dynamic run-time configuration of wakeup sources in
userspace using standard sysfs API:

echo enabled/disabled > /sys/class/<deviceX>/power/wakeup

To implement wakeup support in drivers, the following template can be
used in suspend()/resume() handlers:

if (device_may_wakeup(...)) {
	enable_irq_wake(...);/disable_irq_wake(...);
} else {
	clk_disable_unprepare(...);/clk_prepare_enable(...);
}

Next step will be declaring the rest of Vybrid clocks in
drivers/clk/imx/clk-vf610.c (about 15 more). Those of them that aren't
used by any driver, will be automatically turned off by kernel at
startup (after all drivers are initialized) via clk_disable_unused().

With this approach, we utilize standard mechanism of waking up used all
over the kernel, and make it configurable even from shell scripts. We've
tested it with uart, gpio, rtc, spi, i2c, lan and mmc (SDIO): these
changes are also planned to be sent upstream.

What do you think about this?

Best regards,
Sergei
