I think I accidentally messed that up when I picked up the patch.
There were some merge conflicts with the addition of the
clk_pm_runtime code.

No, I think I just accidentally removed this when resolving conflicts.

Yeah, all of this seems to just be a poor resolution of patch
conflicts on my part. Will fix.
