Create a platform device and register the clock ops. Clock prepare/unprepare are used to enable/disable the clock as the IPC will be sent in non-atomic context. The clk set_dma_control IPC structures are populated during the set_rate callback and IPC is sent to enable the clock during prepare callback.

In this patchset, the clocks are configured from the machine driver, and the enable/disable conveniently placed in platform_clock_control() or hw_params(), where the DSP is most likely active. If you expose a clock, codec driver implementers may want to use them directly instead of relying on a machine driver. A number of existing codecs do use the clk API, so there could be a case where a codec driver calls devm_clk_get and clk_prepare_enable(), without any ability to know what state the DSP is in. What happens then if the DSP is in suspend? Does this force it back to D0? Does the virtual clock driver return an error? Or are you using the clk API with some restrictions on when the clock can be configured?
No, clk enable will not force the DSP to D0. So if the DSP is not active, the IPC will timeout and error will be propagated to the caller.
Or may be it makes sense to enable the runtime pm for clk driver so that it can activate the DSP. I will check this.
I was thinking of another case: we should not make the assumption that there is always a platform clock control and a hw_params callback, e.g. when an external component seen as a dummy codec needs the mclk/bitclock at all times to drive a second-level set of audio devices. In those cases the machine driver will get/enable the clock at startup and it needs to remain on no matter what the DSP state is. That's probably another case for disabling runtime-pm for as long as the machine driver wants the clock.
With the series "[PATCH v9 0/5] Add runtime PM support for clocks (on Exynos SoC example)", runtime support is added in the common clock framework. This is expected to be merged to clk-next after -rc1 drop.
Reference: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-clk/msg19755.html
So marking the parent clock with skylake device will help keep the DSP active on call to enable clock.
