Is the problem really related to power gating at all? From what you 
described in comment in the code, it seems like it's a problem with 
suspend/resume, not power gating, so it should be rather saved on suspend 
and restored on resume. Please recheck clock save/restore part of power 
management code.

Altering clock configuration registers from power domain code looks really 
ugly...

Best regards,
Tomasz Figa
