hmm looking at the core clock tree, I wouldn't think so.

The only intersection between the ddr-clk, aclk_cpu and aclk_peri is the gpll 
which can be a source to both. But the ddr-clk is mainly sourced from the dpll 
anyway.

In any case, turning off aclk_cpu/aclk_peri in this scenario wouldn't normally 
be possible anyway, as most of the time some pclk_* would be active anyway.
