I'm not sure I get this, or maybe I wasn't clear enough with my
explanation regarding the changes to SENSOR clocks: they are not gated
in hardware, hence the statement 'OWL_GATE_HW(CMU_DEVCLKEN0, 14, 0)'
was invalid and I replaced it with '{ 0 }'.
Additionally, I assumed the 'CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED' flag makes sense only
for the gated clocks. Do I miss something?
