Hi Linus,
Yes, we don't need to call prepare() again atleast for SPEAr. You are correct.
I saw the driver after a long time :)
Can you please elaborate, why can't i see any clk_disable/enable calls anywhere
else from probe. If i remember correctly, earlier we used to enable/disable
clk after transfers and also during suspend/resume.
The amba layer is taking care of interface clock only and not
functional clock. So
i believe that's not the magic code. :)
