The clock prepare and enable operations are split to allow clock 
implementations to sleep. Clocks should be kept disable whenever possible, the 
clk_enable() and clk_disable() calls should be as close as possible to the 
time range during which the clock needs to be enabled. This means that those 
calls might happen in a context where sleeping isn't allowed. If a clock 
implementation needs to sleep to enable the clock (by performing an I2C access 
for instance), that operation should be performed at prepare time.

>From a clock user point of view, both clk_prepare() and clk_enable() should be 
called as late as possible. If clk_enable() needs to be called in an atomic 
context clk_prepare() must be called earlier, in a non-atomic context(). 
Otherwise there'e no point in splitting the two calls.

Yes, that's a good point. I'd like to fix that in a separate patch in order to 
avoid delaying this one.
