Not self explanatory. I need this explained to me. What does leave_on
do? Better yet, what would happen if leave_on did not exist?

How do we get to this point? clk_enable_critical actually calls
clk_enable, thus incrementing the enable_count. The only time that we
could hit the above case is if,

a) there is an imbalance in clk_enable and clk_disable calls. If this is
the case then the drivers need to be fixed. Or better yet some
infrastructure to catch that, now that we have per-user struct clk
cookies.

b) a driver knowingly calls clk_enable_critical(foo) and then regular,
old clk_disable(foo). But why would a driver do that?

It might be that I am missing the point here, so please feel free to
clue me in.

Regards,
Mike
