According to the documentation dispcc actually sits in MMCX (I thought
it sat in CX...). So it seems appropriate to just specify that as the
one and only power-domain for &dispcc and use that as the parent for
MDSS_GDSC.

That said, I do think we have other GDSCs in the system where the
controller sits in one power-domain and the parent power-domain is a
different one. I presume the right path here is to list all the
power-domains in DT and then use some name based matching?
