I guess we could, but initially it would have to be CONFIG_OF && 
!CONFIG_ARCH_EXYNOS until patch 03/11 converts Exynos to use the common 
code.

It depends on domain power state, but actually it seems to be already 
handled in __pm_genpd_add_device(), so this line might be not needed indeed.

Strangely enough, it seemed to be needed on Exynos for correct 
operation, but maybe in the meantime some fixes in genpd code showed up. 
This will need some extra testing.

Best regards,
Tomasz
