This is caused by ahb_root_clk gets disabled accidently and system hangs.

Because this patch defines ipg_root_clk earlier before its parent
(ahb_root_clk) got registered, then it will be marked as a orphan clk
temporarily. Until the parent ahb_root_clk got registered, the clk core
will reparent it to the newly found parent. (see __clk_core_init() function).

Due to CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT flag, the ahb clk will be enabled during
set_parent operation and then disabled after that.
Then system hang cause we still get no chance to run init_on clks.

I just send out a proper fix patch with correct register sequence.

Probably we can switch all imx clk driver to CLK_IS_CRITICAL for critical
clocks in the future, but that's another thing to do later.

Stefan,
I think you can just resend your series based on my patches.
