I can see your point but if this is required it feels like something
that the clock API ought to be handling it - the same code should be
added pretty much every time the clock might be set.

When the drivers were originally merged there were quite a few issues
that needed fixing up but it was felt that it was better to get the code
into mainline where it could be worked on more readily.  Ben didn't
really have any time to do much work on the drivers at the time and this
way it's easier for others to pitch in and fix up problems.
