Clocks are properly reference counted and do not need to be inside the
lock range.

Right now this triggers a false-positive lockdep warning on MT8192 based
Chromebooks, through a combination of mtk-scp that has a cros-ec-rpmsg
sub-device, the (actual) cros-ec I2C adapter registration, I2C client
(not on cros-ec) probe doing i2c transfers and enabling clocks.

This is a false positive because the cros-ec-rpmsg under mtk-scp does
not have an I2C adapter, and also each I2C adapter and cros-ec instance
have their own mutex.

Move the clk operations outside of the send_lock range.
