It would be sensible to make sure that the framework is done in such a
way that drivers can use it - there will be drivers (perhaps not display
ones) that have a known power sequence and which could benefit from the
ability to use library code to implement it based on the user simply
supplying named resources.

Not sure I understand what you mean, but things should be working this way
already - regulators and PWMs are acquired by name using the standard
regulator_get() and pwm_get() functions. GPIOs do not, AFAIK, have a way
to be referenced by name so their number is used instead.

Right, but the sequencing for enabling them is currently open coded in
each driver.

Mmm then I'm afraid I don't see what you wanted to say initially - could you 
elaborate?
