If a non-hardware device-tree node is okay to have for the domain, then
I can try again.

What I also haven't mentioned is that GENPD adds some extra complexity
to some drivers (3d, video decoder) because we will need to handle both
new GENPD and legacy Tegra specific pre-genpd era domains.

I'm also not exactly sure how the topology of domains should look like
because Tegra has a power-controller (PMC) which manages power rail of a
few hardware units. Perhaps it should be

  device -> PMC domain -> CORE domain

but not exactly sure for now.
