Now that the clk_prepare() patch has been enabled, new drivers should be
written assuming that clk_prepare() will be necessary before clk_enable().
And one may query why it's not possible to use clk_enable()...clk_disable()
around the transfer itself, so the clock can be turned off while the device
is idle. Obviously if its expecting to be operated in slave mode as well
then you may need to keep the clock enabled.
