An additional pwrseq compatible for device is acceptable? Perhaps. The issue is whether common or driver specific code handles this may change over time. In other words, it is purely a kernel decision. It could move in either direction. It may be better to just have a whitelist of devices (though it would need to be board specific somehow). > 2.

If you only need to deal with some of them or need a specific sequence, then it is not generic.
