order to support generic power-domains.

+== PM Domain Nodes ==

+Each of the PM domain nodes represents a power-domain on the Tegra SoC
+that can be power-gated by the PMC and should be named appropriately.
+
+Required properties:
+  - clocks:		   Must contain an entry for each clock required by
+			   the PMC for controlling a power-gate. See
+			   ../clocks/clock-bindings.txt for details.
+  - resets:		   Must contain an entry for each reset required by
+			   the PMC for controlling a power-gate. See
+			   ../reset/reset.txt for details.
+  - nvidia,powergate:	   Integer cell that contains an identifier for the
+			   PMC power-gate that is associated with the
+			   power-domain. Please refer to the Tegra TRM for
+			   more details.
I find this really difficult to read. Can we use a more conventional
format such as:

	- clocks: Must contain...
	  ... for details.

?
+  - #power-domain-cells:   Must be 0.
+
+Optional properties:
+  - nvidia,swgroups:	   Provides details of the software groups that are
+			   associated with a specific power-domain. The
+			   software group specifier consists of a phandle
+			   pointing to the memory controller and a list of
+			   one or more integer cells for each software group
+			   associated with the power domain. The length of
+			   the list of integer cells is specified by
+			   #nvidia,swgroup-cells.
+  - #nvidia,swgroup-cells: Must be 1 or more. See nvidia,swgroups for
+			   more details.
That's not how this usually works. #*-cells properties determine the
number of cells required per <phandle spec> pair. So I think this should
be more along the lines of:

  - #nvidia,swgroups: A list of software groups associated with a
    specific power domain. This consists of a list of phandle and
    SWGROUP ID pairs, where the phandle points to the memory
    controller node.
  - #nvidia,swgroup-cells: Must be 1. The single cell in the specifier
    denotes the ID of the software group.
+
+Example:
+
+	pmc at 0,7000e400 {
+		compatible = "nvidia,tegra124-pmc";
+		reg = <0x0 0x7000e400 0x0 0x400>;
+		clocks = <&tegra_car TEGRA124_CLK_PCLK>, <&clk32k_in>;
+		clock-names = "pclk", "clk32k_in";
+
+		pm-domains {
power-domains would convey more clearly what this is about.
+			...
+
+			pd_sor: sor-power-domain {
I don't think it's useful to repeat the -power-domain suffix for all
these nodes.
