Moving the decision to disable unused clks to a DT property is yet another approach. I'd rather not do that, because it really isn't describing the hardware configuration. If anything, I'd expect the property to be describing which clks are enabled by the firmware and then leave the decision to disable them because they're unused up to the software.
