If so, it might be atclk for clocking the module rather than the
register interface. Could you confirm this?

The replicator is just a middle component on the data path. I read
that it shares the same clock with other CoreSight components, so it
should still be safe to remove the clock from the replicator node,
as other components on the path will ensure that the clock is enabled.
