As we are cleaning up the PHY device nodes, we should consider fixing 
the power domains as well. Although TOP GDSC is defined as a power 
domain, it is not the power source for the PHY devices. Rather, it is 
the MMCX, MXC and optionally MXA based on the architecture (Refer to 
'Voltage rail' column for PHY clocks in IPCAT). There is no
parent-child relationship between the TOP GDSC and these in the clock 
driver and it was just working as the required power rails are getting 
enabled by/for other MM devices.
