Add a per-powerdomain spinlock.  Use that instead of the clockdomain
spinlock.  Add pwrdm_lock()/pwrdm_unlock() functions to allow other
code to acquire or release the powerdomain spinlock without reaching
directly into the struct powerdomain.
Since clockdomains are part of powerdomains it seems weird for the
clockdomain code to take a powerdoamin lock.
Is there a reason why the powerdomain could not take the lock before
calling the clockdomain functions?

Also, are the lock and nolock version the clockdomain function needed?

Regards,
Jean
