I guess you are looking for this discussion

http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.power-management.general/41053

and specifically Mark's remarks on PMU and DT in here

BTW, +1 for a single PMU node that either serves an mfd (or type
of) driver or that subsystem drivers derive their resources from.
Looking at Dove FS, that would also include clock gating, which
could be a mess to sort out.. anyway, let's get it on.
