+1

Another place I faced a similar problem was the OMAP control module, which contains
registers for a number of different non related peripherals. (e.g. PHY for USB, SATA,
Display clock, etc)

The register handling is fine. But how do we deal with resource handling?
e.g. the block that has the deep-core registers might need to be clocked or powered
before the registers can be accessed.
