Argh. And then I understood that without the patch clk_core_is_enabled 
will shortcut to core->enable_count, which also means that the clock 
will be skipped.

But now I have another question: since r->enabled follows 
core->enabled_count, can we get rid of r->enabled and switch to 
core->enable_count? This might mean adding clk_software_is_enabled() 
function for your patch.
