So this change is just preventing software from clearing the wakeup-deps
and keeping the PER clock domain always in HW_AUTO?

Sorry for the dumb question, but what is the circumstance under which we
want to clear the wakeup-deps when we disable the clock domain? I am
just curious why this is being done in the first place.

Cheers
Jon
