In my opinion I think the performance-domain binding is superfluous.
We already have plenty of power-domains that do performance scaling
too - and they stick with the power-domain binding, as it's
sufficient.

That said, I would rather follow the defacto standard that has been
used for many years in the kernel. Do you have a preference that we
should stick to?

Kind regards
