The TISCI firmware will return 0 if the clock or consumer is not
enabled although there is a stored value in the firmware. IOW a call to
set rate will work but at get rate will always return 0 if the clock is
disabled.
The clk framework will try to cache the clock rate when it's requested
by a consumer. If the clock or consumer is not enabled at that point,
the cached value is 0, which is wrong. Thus, disable the cache
altogether.
