There is a mismatch in axi clock enable and disable calls.
The axi clock is enabled and disabled by the probe function,
then it is again disabled in the remove path.
So observed the call trace while removing the module.
Use the clk_enable() and devm_clk_get_prepared() functions
instead of devm_clk_get_enable() to avoid an extra clock disable
call from the remove path.

  Call trace:
   clk_core_disable+0xb0/0xc0
   clk_disable+0x30/0x4c
   clk_disable_unprepare+0x18/0x30
   devm_clk_release+0x24/0x40
   devres_release_all+0xc8/0x190
   device_unbind_cleanup+0x18/0x6c
   device_release_driver_internal+0x20c/0x250
   device_release_driver+0x18/0x24
   bus_remove_device+0x124/0x130
   device_del+0x174/0x440

Hi, I'm not sure the Fixes tag is correct.

This issue was there before it.
Commit 4de0224c6fbe is just a clean-up and shouldn't change the behavior of the code.

I think that the issue was introduced in 2017 in b6bc41645547. (should the bellow patch be backported in older stable kernels)
