Usually the consumer is responsible for doing that.
Does the rcar-sound driver do that?

But in this case, perhaps the clock should be enabled implicitly in response
to a request from the audio subsystem, like you do below.

Note that you register a fixed-rate clock, which is assumed to be always
enabled. Perhaps a gateable clock type is more appropriate?
