So, on prepare, we notify after we've prepared the clock.  On unprepare,
we notify after the clock has been shut down.  Are you sure that's the
correct ordering?  Would it not be better to view it in a stack-like
fashion, iow:

get
	prepare
		notify-prepare
			enable
			disable
		notify-unprepare
	unprepare
put

?

This implies that we're only going to have a maximum of 32 reason codes
here.  Is that enough?
