ARM: imx: correct the hardware clock gate setting for shared nodes



For those clk gates which hold share count, since its is_enabled
callback is only checking the share count rather than reading
the hardware register setting, in the late phase of kernel bootup,
the clk_disable_unused action will NOT handle the scenario of
share_count is 0 but the hardware setting is enabled, actually,
U-Boot normally enables all clk gates, then those shared clk gates
will be always enabled until they are used by some modules.

So the problem would be: when kernel boot up, the usecount cat
from clk tree is 0, but the clk gates actually is enabled in
hardware register, it will confuse user and bring unnecessary power
consumption.

This patch adds .disable_unused callback and using hardware register
check for .is_enabled callback of shared nodes to handle such scenario
in late phase of kernel boot up, then the hardware status will match the
clk tree info.
