[RESEND PATCH] clk: at91: keep slow clk enabled to prevent system hang

[Boris Brezillon]

All slow clk users are not properly requesting it (get + prepare + enable)
before using it.
If all users properly requesting this clock decide that they don't need it
anymore (or are removed), this lead to this clock being disabled while
faulty users are still requiring it, which in turn hangs the system.

Prevent slow oscillator clock from being disabled until all users are
properly requesting it.

Hi Mike,

Sorry for the noise, but I forgot to add the LKML and LAKML in Cc.

Can you have a look at this fix and let me know if this is how you want this
problem addressed ?
I can also request (get + prepare + enable) the clk in the pmc probe function,
so that it can never be disabled.

If you're fine with the approach, can you queue it for the next -rc ?

Best Regards,

Boris
