Allow to pass an integer n that results in only keeping n unused clocks
enabled.

This helps to debug the problem if you only know that clk_ignore_unused
helps but you have no clue yet which clock is the culprit.

which fixes the debug output. Found by the kernel test robot; Thanks!

I consider this patch really helpful, it helped me to debug a clk issue
without having to recompile the kernel for each bisection step.

On #kernelnewbies I got some positive feedback for it (1629304050 < j_ey>
ukleinek: nice clk_ignore_unused patch, I added a pr_err there recently
to print the clocks that were being disabled).

Best regards
Uwe

Any thoughts on this patch? Would be great if it makes it into the next
merge window.

Thanks for considering,
Uwe

Back then I thought this patch could make it into 5.16, now 5.18 is
released and i didn't get any feedback on this patch :-\
