+== Powergate Nodes ==
+
+Each of the powergate nodes represents a power-domain on the Tegra SoC
+that can be power-gated by the PMC and should be named appropriately.
+
+Required properties:
+  - reg: Contains an integer value that identifies the PMC power-gate.
+    Please refer to the Tegra TRM for more details. The parent node
+    must contain the following two properties:
+    - #address-cells: Must be 1,
+    - #size-cells: Must be 0.
+  - 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.
+  - #power-domain-cells: Must be 0.
+
+Example:
+
+	pmc: pmc@0,7000e400 {
+		compatible = "nvidia,tegra210-pmc";
+		reg = <0x0 0x7000e400 0x0 0x400>;
+		clocks = <&tegra_car TEGRA210_CLK_PCLK>, <&clk32k_in>;
+		clock-names = "pclk", "clk32k_in";
+
+		powergates {
+			#address-cells = <1>;
+			#size-cells = <0>;
+
+			pd_audio: aud {
+				reg = <TEGRA_POWERGATE_AUD>;
+				clocks = <&tegra_car TEGRA210_CLK_APE>,
+					 <&tegra_car TEGRA210_CLK_APB2APE>;
+				resets = <&tegra_car 198>;
+				#power-domain-cells = <0>;
+			};
+		};
+	};

+
+== Powergate Clients ==
+
+Hardware blocks belonging to a power domain should contain a "power-domains"
+property that is a phandle pointing to the corresponding powergate node.
+
+Example:
+
+	adma: adma@702e2000 {
+		...
+		power-domains = <&pd_audio>;
+		...
+	};
