Sounds to me like the right time to make this change for OMAP4 is when the 
call to omap2_clk_disable_clkdm_control() is removed from 
clock44xx_data.c.  Hopefully that can happen as soon as someone can finish 
the analysis work that we discussed to figure out what drivers still 
aren't converted to using runtime PM, backed with omap_device & 
omap_hwmod.

And at that point, there shouldn't be any reason to test oh->_clk->clkdm 
at all on OMAP4, no?  OMAP4 should only warn if oh->clkdm_name is missing 
or can't be resolved.

As far as OMAP2/3 goes, when OMAP2/3 is converted to use the hwmod 
clockdomain enable sequence, that seems like a good time to drop the 
oh->_clk->clkdm test for main clocks.

I'm also wondering if we should be checking clockdomains for the optional 
clocks in _init_opt_clks()... at least on OMAP2/3, unsure about OMAP4.  
Right now we don't implement any hwmod clockdomain enable sequence for the 
optional clocks.
