This is primarily useful when there's a driver that doesn't claim clocks
properly, but the bootloader leaves them on. It's not expected to be used
in normal cases, but for bringup and debug it's very useful to have the
option to not gate unclaimed clocks that are still on.

Thanks for the respin.  I had to fix up a trivial merge issue with
Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt, but no big deal.  Patch is merged
into clk-next.

Regards,
Mike
