Enabling the INT A-D interrupts is needed for the PCI device drivers to
receive interrupts from their respective PCI devices. But then, once
you enable the INT A-D interrupts, they are also latched into the PCIe
controller, so if you don't acknowledge them in the PCIe controller
level, at the first interrupt coming from a PCI device, the system
hangs. I've added a comment in the driver about this.

The clock drivers are now regular platform drivers, so I'll add the
EPROBE_DEFER handling logic.

Thanks!
