Up till now there was no single generic method to bind devices to their power domains using Device Tree. Each platform has been doing this using its own way, example of which are Exynos power domain bindings [1] and look-up code [2]. This series is intended to change this and provide generic DT bindings for power domain specification and generic code performing look-up of power domains and binding them to devices. Patches 1, 2, 3 are not directly related to this series, but they are dependencies of further patches making mach-s3c64xx a user of introduced code. Patch 4 is the most important part of this series, as it's the one introducing $subject. Further patches are fixing and adding two users, mach-exynos (removing the legacy code) and mach-s3c64xx (no DT support for power domains before). Last two patches are adding display support for Mini6410 board, including a node for display controller (FIMD) which is a power domain consumer. Successfully tested on S3C6410-based Mini6410 board.
I left the references for the end of this cover letter and finally forgot about them. Please accept my apologies ;). [1] Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/exynos/power_domain.txt [2] arch/arm/mach-exynos/pm_domains.c Also it might be good to mention that I was heavily inspired by implementation of clock providers in Common Clock Framework in case of provider registration and look-up and also by my Exynos power domain implementation (now removed by this series ;)) in case of code binding devices to power domains.
