The aux clk is enabled in dp_power_clk_enable() right? Can you clarify?

I'd much more like to get rid of 'core_initialized'. What is preventing
us from enabling the power (i.e. dp_power_init()), or at least enough
clks and pm runtime state, during probe? That would fix this problem and
also clean things up. As I understand, the device is half initialized in
probe and half initialized in the kthread. If we put all power
management into the runtime PM ops and synced that state during probe so
that runtime PM state matched device probe state we could make runtime
PM be the only suspend function and then push the power state tracking
into the device core.

The code looks OK to me, so
