Thanks for setting up this branch.

Is there an upstream DT for this platform?

I tried this series on mt8183-pumpkin, and since the upstream DT doesn't
define a CCI regulator, the CCI driver fails to probe.  Without CCI, the
SVS driver also fails to probe.  So the platform boots, but has neither
CCI nor SVS.

If I add a regulator for CCI[1], it goes farther, but then fails more
noisly[2]

I think you're probably seeing CPU DVFS (CPUfreq) working, but I suspect
neither CCI or SVS have successfully loaded.
