I remember we had something similar in our internal tree with the
bus_blk_clk on 8MP, which was added by the media BLK_CTL. What I did was to
just drop the registration of that clock entirely. My rationale was that if
the clock is part of the BLK_CTL but also needed by the BLK_CTL to work,
I can leave it alone (that is, enabled by default) since when the PD will be
powered off the clock will gated too. I guess another option would be to 
mark it as critical, that way, it will never be disabled (will be left alone
by the clk_disable_unused too) but at the same time will be visible in the
clock hierarchy.
