Yeah, adding tracing to the clock framework shows that it indeed
disables PLLC_PER. So there's probably some other device that depends on
it but doesn't take a reference to it.

I had a look, but it's not really obvious what that might be.

This patch makes sure that the PLL*_PER are never disabled, could you
test it? It seems to work for me.
