Instead of entirely removing the logic that controls the clocks and always
refuse to save power, what about using autosuspend?

If the two cases that you're describing are happening always in a range of
time, we could *yes* remove the "manual" bulk disable/enable calls, but then
we could use runtime_suspend/runtime_resume callbacks for that.

Hint: pm_runtime_set_autosuspend_delay(dev, 1000);
