That may have been the issue; the clock may have been on at boot, and
hence the driver attempted to disable it without ever enabling it
itself, and this triggered an error/warning.

Equally, it's plausible this issue is long gone; the audio clocks were
set up this way due to issues over 2 years ago when the audio code was
upstreamed. At that time, Tegra's clock code was using very little
standard infra-structure, whereas now it's been cleaned up to use the
common clock framework etc.
