Aren't the omap_device_pm_latency callbacks the right place to do it?

e.g. in the following snippet from mach-omap2/temp_sensor_device.c

+static struct omap_device_pm_latency omap_temp_sensor_latency[] = {
+	{
+	 .deactivate_func = omap_device_idle_hwmods,
+	 .activate_func = omap_device_enable_hwmods,
+	 .flags = OMAP_DEVICE_LATENCY_AUTO_ADJUST,
+	}
+};

instead of directly pointing activate_func to omap_device_enable_hwmods,
it could point to a function that sets the required clock rate and then
enables the hwmod.
