Even with threaded interrupts things are still called while interrupts 
are disabled by one or more layers of spin_lock_irqsave. There are also 
different code paths from where clk_on() is called. So getting this 
right while saving power is probably not trivial and beyond my 
knowledge/experience with the udc code. It would be nice if someone with 
a deeper knowledge of the atmel udc code can get this right. My primary 
intention was to get the code working again.

thx & greets,
ron
