There's no clear rule here on the ordering (at least enforced by the
framework). There's clocks that need to be disabled to change their rate
(CLK_SET_RATE_GATE) and some that need to be enabled to change their
rate (CLK_SET_RATE_UNGATE).

Generally speaking, it seems more logical to me to have first the rate
changed and then the clock enabled since it won't create any "hiccup",
but I could very well see the opposite to be preferred.
