Hmm. Guess we weren't super awake with that one :(

The ideal situation is to control these based on what the device is being used for
and not provide explicit control to userspace or via dt.
So if it doesn't make sense to power up a unit because it isn't wired to anything
then express the wiring in DT.
If it makes sense to power down a unit because it isn't being used currently
due to what features are in use, then power it down automatically. Runtime pm
handles a lot of these cases by letting you do autopowerdown if not used after
a certain period. That way, we don't end up powering up and down rapidly but
only do it if we have go reason to believe it is worth powering down.
Could we use either of these approaches here?
