As far as I know there is a plan to let the drivers override start/stop_device 
callbacks,
moreover the clock control can be disabled globally by not implementing 
start/stop_device
callbacks or per device by not adding clkdev entities to the device clock list 
at runtime 
PM core. So IMHO, there is/going to be enough flexibility.

What do you mean by this ? I couldn't find such information in any 
documentation.
Shouldn't "clock gate block" registers be touched by boot loader and the kernel?
Our boot loaders disable all clocks, and if the global clock gate is not enabled
by the kernel there is no chance any multimedia device will work.

Should the global clock block gate be always enabled then ? I'm afraid it is not
optimal form power management POV.
