Subject: [PATCH v3 2/8] PM / Domains: Handle safely genpd_syscore_switch() call on non-genpd device

genpd_syscore_switch() had two problems:
1. It silently assumed that device, it is being called for, belongs to
   generic power domain and used container_of() on its power domain
   pointer.  Such assumption might not be true always.

2. It iterated over list of generic power domains without holding
   gpd_list_lock mutex thus list could have been modified in the same
   time.

Usage of genpd_lookup_dev() solves both problems as it is safe a call
for non-generic power domains and uses mutex when iterating.
