Lockdep reported a possible deadlock between the cpuclk lock and for example
the i2c driver.

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(clk_lock);
                               local_irq_disable();
                               lock(&(&i2c->lock)->rlock);
                               lock(clk_lock);
  <Interrupt>
    lock(&(&i2c->lock)->rlock);

 *** DEADLOCK ***

The generic clock-types of the core ccf already use spin_lock_irqsave when
touching clock registers, so do the same for the cpuclk.
