Could you describe the issue the patch is fixing?

For accessing PPS registers the AUX power well may not be needed, but
I'm not sure if this also applies to PPS functionality in general. For
instance forcing VDD is required for AUX functionality.

In any case we do need a power reference for any register access, so I
don't think not getting any power reference for PPS is ok.
