Right.

As a note, when we assign a child domain to a parent domain, via
of_genpd_add_subdomain() for example - and the child domain has been
powered on, this requires the parent domain to be turned on as well.

Unfortunately, I didn't understand all the above things.

In any case, please tell me if there is anything else that blocks you
from moving forward with the power domain conversion? I am happy to
help.
