This is because I have not implemented any of the clocks used by the
domains at this moment.

Actually, I am not sure anymore whether it is necessary to assign
clocks to the domains as I have just yesterday successfully brought up
the GPU with some out-of-tree code and that did not require giving the
domains any clocks even though the vendor kernel does this. Should I
just go with that and drop all clock handling from the power domain
driver, at which point there would be no need for the individual domain
nodes? If not, how should I in the future assign clocks to the domains?

By this, do you mean that the clock driver registers the power domain
controller through devm_mfd_add_devices()?
