Mike, correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought you need clkdev look-up
entry for clk_get() to find a clock. Here, this clock apparently don't
have one and you don't even have a struct device * to pass to clk_get(),
so even if you had a look-up entry, it would need to be a wildcard entry
(with NULL device), which wouldn't be too elegant.

Doug, isn't a similar thing needed for PM debug as well? Maybe having
this clock always ungated whenever DEBUG_LL is enabled would be enough?

Best regards,
Tomasz
