I don't think that clock will ever need to be disabled/enabled, so I would
drop this definition. The clock will remain in its default state after reset
(enabled).

I suppose CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED is needed because there is no drivers that
would enable required clocks. For some clocks the flag could probably
indeed just be omitted, e.g. SLIMSSS clocks. 

I'm inclined to just define clocks that we are confident about and which
are needed now. i.e. the SSS IP block clocks. So in include/dt-bindings/
clock/exynos5433.h we would have something like:
 
+/* CMU_IMEM */
+#define CLK_ACLK_SSS			1
+#define CLK_PCLK_SSS			40

+#define IMEM_NR_CLK			41

The other clocks could be added later as needed by someone who has 
detailed knowledge about respective peripheral blocks.
