I don't really see the need to mark all these clocks as having a domain.
Yes, it makes sense to mark the actual DPLL clocks themselves with the
relevent DPLL domain.  However, it makes no sense to mark the children
as well.

Why?  When we enable a clock, we walk up the tree enabling the domains
first.  So, even if we're enabling a child clock, we will walk the tree
up to the DPLL and enable the clock domain before we do anything at all.

Sure, if a clock has a multiplexer and that multiplexer is in a different
clock domain from its parent, it makes sense to.  But otherwise it doesn't.
