If these clocks need to be kept enabled perhaps it's better to just set
CLK_IS_CRITICAL flag for them? Patches adding this flag are already in
clk-next branch in the clk git tree. This way the clocks would get 
enabled within the clk_register() call.

The CMU registration order is enforced by listing input clocks to each
CMU in DT. However, I wouldn't be concerned much about it in context 
of this patch. We are enabling here clocks which belong to same CMU.
samsung_cmu_register_one() needs to be called first for subsequent 
__clk_lookup() calls to work.

Perhaps related bits need to be set manually in CMU registers before
registering a clock provider for the CMU, to fulfil the requirements.

Anyway, summary of the $subject patch seems not precise enough:

"This patch enables clocks for CMU_CCORE and CMU_FSYS0 blocks. This is
required before accessing registers of these blocks."

We need to enable selected clocks (i.e. access the CMU's registers)
before accessing this CMU's registers?
