It's there as a hack to keep clocks live or to avoid pops and clicks as
the datastream goes to zero during shutdown if the CODEC doesn't support
mute or otherwise handle the input going away cleanly (which is just a
more general case of keeping the clocks live usually).  You'd do it for
front ends as well to make sure things are consistent.
