I can not recall such a flag. We had both hwmods attached to the given McBSP
mkodule via dev_attr and we dealt with the McBSP_ICLK autoidle enable/disable
via callbacks provided to the driver via platform data.
arch/arm/mach-omap2/mcbsp.c: omap3_enable_st_clock() In there we use
omap2_clk_deny_idle()/omap2_clk_allow_idle() to make sure that the ICLK is not
gated when the ST is enabled in the given McBSP module.
But this only works when we boot in legacy mode. The DT boot is broken in this
regards as long we have first booted OMAP3 with DT.
