In my device, clock to the codec is coming from modem (for voice call use case).  After voice call termination, application
Calls snd_pcm_close for voice device and then turns off the modem clock.  Since clock is turned-off while
Widgets are still on (power down deferred by pmdown_time), I am noticing the glitches.

I thought, having ignore_pmdown_time for individual codec device would allow flexibility.
