What switched the clocks on ? Presumably LK.

Is this a symptom of using a bootloader other than LK ? If you use the 
same bootloader, then why hasn't the bootloader/LK already set it up on 
your platform ?

I think you could use assigned-clocks for that ..

So its not part of your series but then presumably you have a follow-on 
patch for the 8998 dts that points your ->intf_clks at these then ?

clocks = <&clock_gcc clk_aggre2_noc_clk>,
          <&clock_gcc clk_gcc_ufs_axi_clk>,
          <&clock_gcc clk_gcc_aggre2_ufs_axi_clk>;

It seems like the right thing to do..

Still not clear why these clocks are off.. your bootchain ?
