I recently debugged a similar issue like this:
1. build kernel with CLOCK_ALLOW_WRITE_DEBUGFS
2. boot with clk_ignore_unused, so clocks stay enabled
3. disable clocks via sysfs:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/clk/${CLK}/clk_prepare_enable
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/clk/${CLK}/clk_prepare_enable
4. check if peripheral is still ok
5. repeat step 3 with the next 'interesting' clock
