Thanks for the pointer, that helped me to get to the root cause.

The clock required for the PLIC wasnt available during the probe of
this driver. This bug got hidden when the PLIC driver was probed
earlier  in boot where it used an incorrect clock source. Ive created
a patch which adds a missing clock for the PLIC.

Sorry for the noise!
