I found the issue. The problem was that Exynos5422 needs not only the
CLK_ACLK_ 300_GSCL but also CLK_ACLK432_SCALER to be ungated in order
to access the GSCL IP block.

The Exynos5422 manual shows in Figure 7-14 that ACLK_432_SCLAER is needed
for the internal buses.

Exynos5420 only needs CLK_ACLK_ 300_GSCL to be ungated.

With following hack, the issue goes away for the gsc_pd in the Odroid XU4:

I'll post a proper patch for the exynos5800.dtsi, to override the
clocks in the gsc_pd device node.

I also see that the two power domains that fail to be disabled msc_pd
(power-domain at 10044120) and isp_pd (power-domain at 10044020) don't have
clocks defined in the exynos54xx.dtsi. I'll add clocks for those too.
