This looks mostly good, the issues below are very small.

You're only doing clk_disable() here, I would expect the clocks to also
be unprepared over suspend - there is no value in leaving them prepared
that I can see.  Just use clk_unprepare_disable().

It would also be good (though not essential) to implement runtime PM and
disable the clocks while there are no transfers in progress for a small
power saving.  The auto_runtime_pm feature in the core will do the
runtime PM calls for you.

Otherwise this looks good.
