As our clock owner's advice, there are prepare/unprepare clk_ops for
pll, but no enable/disable clk_ops for it, and pll will be off only when
the prepare reference count decrease to 0.

so for the sake of power saving, we'd better call clk_disable_unprepare
to turn the parent pll off.

Thanks for the reminder, I'll add the fixes tag in the next version.

maybe it should be clk_disable_unprepare(priv->plat->pclk);
                   clk_disable_unprepare(priv->plat->stmmac_clk);
