Not if you mark it critical

static struct clk_branch cam_cc_gdsc_clk = {
         .halt_reg = 0xc1e4,
         .halt_check = BRANCH_HALT,
         .clkr = {
                 .enable_reg = 0xc1e4,
                 .enable_mask = BIT(0),
                 .hw.init = &(struct clk_init_data){
                         .name = "cam_cc_gdsc_clk",
                         .parent_hws = (const struct clk_hw*[]){
                                 &cam_cc_xo_clk_src.clkr.hw
                         },
                         .num_parents = 1,
                         .flags = CLK_IS_CRITICAL | CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT,
                         .ops = &clk_branch2_ops,
                 },
         },
};

and then add this to your camss clocks

<&clock_camcc CAM_CC_GDSC_CLK>;

The practice we have of just whacking clocks always-on in the probe() of 
the clock driver feels lazy to me, leaving the broken cleanups we have 
aside.

As a user of the system I'd rather see correct/complete data in 
/sys/kernel/debug/clk/clk_summary

Anyway I'm fine with setting the clock always on, I can always send out 
a series to address this bug-bear myself.

So yeah just fix the cleanup and then please feel free to add my
