Right, so that's what I observe: RPM_SMD_CE1_CLK is always on by the
time crypto _probe gets called.
So, IMO let's not mix this patchset with the other fix which probably
will fix the 10-year old clk_smd_rpm handoff keeping
these clocks on.

Probably that should be a separate changeset - requiring very thorough
checks to make sure that we don't break
working platforms.

Thanks.
