It's not patched for mainline. Generally clock-domain code
is abstracted from drivers but considering the errata and affected
modules, I guees it should be handled by DSS driver
since that is where the state of DSS or ISS will be known. Note
ISS will be automatically taken care since it will always use disaplay.

In internal tree's this was handled as part of DSS early suspend/resume
