This isn't checking return values.  It's also enabling both clocks all
the time which isn't always going to be what's desired - it may result
in an expensive high frequency reference clock being enabled when only
a 32kHz clock is needed for example.  That doesn't seem desirable.

Should this perhaps be being done in active_reference instead?
