Hi,
This is v2 of the series to add support for TI SCI PM Domains. v1 of
the series can be found here [1]. Several things have changed since v1:

- New patch to add a void *data to struct generic_pm_domain_data to
  allow to store per device data associated with a genpd
- From v1, squash patch 1 and 2 to introduce docs and dt-bindings in
  one patch based on comment from Ulf
- Fix some grammar errors in Documentation
- Based on comments from Ulf, rework actual genpd implementation to
  avoid creating one genpd per device and instead use device start/stop
  hooks provided as part of genpd to control device state based on pm_runtime
  implementation. Also make use of new of_genpd_add_provider_simple API
  introduced by Jon Hunter and do not provide custom of_xlate to genpd core,
  instead registering devices as they probe through attach_dev hook provided
  by genpd framework.

Most of the changes were motivated by the comments from Ulf Hannson on v1 that we
should not use a 1-to-1 genpd to device mapping. The new approach allows us to
create a single genpd and store information about each device as they attach to
the genpd. Then the device start/stop hooks for that genpd leverage the
per-device data to control power states over the TI SCI protocol.

This driver makes use of the ti_sci driver sent here [2] by Nishanth Menon and
applies on top of his series on v4.9-rc1.

Regards,
Dave

Dave Gerlach (4):
  PM / Domains: Add generic data pointer to genpd data struct
  dt-bindings: Add TI SCI PM Domains
  soc: ti: Add ti_sci_pm_domains driver
  ARM: keystone: Drop PM domain support for k2g
If I'm to apply this at one point, ACKs are required from Ulf/Kevin,
the appropriate platform maintainers, and the DT bindings people.
Also it should be applicable on top of the LInus' tree for me to apply
it.

Thanks,
Rafael
