Not really, no. The only places it calls clk_enable/disable are those 
listed below. Idea is that we want to keep the sensor running all the 
time. There should come another patch to cover for core idle, which in 
that case, this driver must idle the sensor, and therefor gate the 
clock, otherwise core won't idle, on some OMAP versions.

Ok. For now at least it is not the case.

hheeh, alright:-)

thanks for your comment.
