I agree, For 'external-fpga-config' use case this patch is not capable of supporting the dynamic PM.
I Will explore and get back to you to handle this use case.

Can you please point me any references to handle the multiple power domains?
This implementation is region specific which means it can handle both full and partial power domains
Independently based on the power domains info exists in the DT.
For example:
Base DT: For full
fpga_full: fpga-full {
compatible = "fpga-region";
fpga-mgr = <&zynqmp_pcap>;
#address-cells = <2>;
#size-cells = <2>;
ranges;
power-domains = <&zynqmp_firmware PL_PD>;
};
Overlay DT: For Partial
fragment@0 {
target = <&fpga_full>;
#address-cells = <2>;
#size-cells = <2>;
__overlay__ {
#address-cells = <2>;
#size-cells = <2>;
firmware-name = "full.bin";
fpga_PR0: fpga-PR0 {
compatible = "fpga-region";
#address-cells = <2>;
#size-cells = <2>;
ranges;
power-domains = <&zynqmp_firmware PL_PR_PD>;
};
};
};
