I believe the problem is that the shared count is not increased
correctly during registration. When it would be increased during
registration for each clock that is enabled in hardware clock_disable_unused
could do its job like intended.

Could you test the attached patch?

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: i.MX: clk-gate2: Fix shared clock enable counting

When during registration of a shared clock the clock is enabled
in hardware the shared_count must be increased. This makes sure
that during clk_disable the shared_count is decreased first before
actually diabling the clock. When done like this the is_enabled
callback can return the hardware state of the clock, like it is
intended.

This is equivalent to calling clk_enable on this clk. So the result is
that clk_disable_unused now succeeds to disable if all related clks are
unused. But it introduces a new problem I think.

Consider that the bootloader starts linux with the clk on, so
assuming 3 shared clks share_count ends at 3 after the clocks are
registered. Then a driver makes use of one of them, calls
clk_prepare_enable on it, share_count becomes 4, enable_count = 1.
clk_disable_unused disables the two unused clks making share_count = 2.
After the driver now calls clk_disable the clk stays on. -> bad

Best regards
Uwe
