net: ipa: don't hold clock reference while netdev open
Currently a clock reference is taken whenever the ->ndo_open callback for the modem netdev is called. That reference is dropped when the device is closed, in ipa_stop(). We no longer need this, because ipa_start_xmit() now handles the situation where the hardware power state is not active. Drop the clock reference in ipa_open() when we're done, and take a new reference in ipa_stop() before we begin closing the interface. Finally (and unrelated, but trivial), change the return type of ipa_start_xmit() to be netdev_tx_t instead of int. Signed-off-by:Alex Elder <elder@linaro.org> Signed-off-by:
