Totally agree. The syscon is there for other GPRs of any BLK_CTL which
do not fit in a clock or reset controller. So please do not ever use the
syscon for touching clocks or reset. Actually, I'm thinking of a way to
make sure the use of syscon for clocks and resets in the BLK_CTL would
be protected against.

All the BLK_CTLs have their own power domains. No question there. Now if
there are resets anc clocks that are part of the BLK_CTL and need to be
asserted/enabled on runtime resume, I think we can implement a generic
way to do that in the pm_runtime callbacks. Something similar to the
.pm_runtime_saved_regs, maybe.
