Subject: Re: [RFC PATCH v2 1/2] PM: domains: Skip disabling unused domains if

I recently encountered a related issue on a Qualcomm platform with a
v6.2-rc kernel, which includes 3a39049f88e4 ("soc: qcom: rpmhpd: Use
highest corner until sync_state"). The issue involves a DT node with a
rpmhpd, the DT node is enabled, however the corresponding device driver
is not enabled in the kernel. In such a scenario the sync_state callback
is never called, because the genpd consumer never probes. As a result
the Always-on subsystem (AOSS) of the SoC doesn't enter sleep mode during
system suspend, which results in a substantially higher power consumption
in S3.
I wonder if genpd (and some other frameworks) needs something like
regulator_init_complete(), which turns off unused regulators 30s after
system boot. That's conceptually similar to the current
genpd_power_off_unused(), but would provide time for modules being loaded.
