Alexandre, I was hoping that you would just squash my patch with your 
patch and take Sekhar's suggestion about a separate patch to make the 
private __clk_enable() public as davinci_clk_enable() when you re-submit.

You can add "Suggested-By: David Lechner <david@lechnology.com>" to the 
commit message if you would like to give me some credit for my ideas.
