This ends up calling dev_pm_opp_set_rate(0) [i see this is an existing
bug in geni_se_resources_deactivate()], which removes the power vote,
but does nothing to the clock (neither set_rate nor disable_unprepare),
which will crash the platform

Both of these calls (new and existing) should be removed. Clocks will
be disabled by geni_se_clks_off() in geni_se_resources_deactivate().

Then, we should do dev_pm_set_opp(se->dev, NULL) *after* they are off
to remove any trailing OPP resources (i.e. icc votes defined in the OPP
table in our case)
