include/linux/soc might be better?

Even better would be to make this work through a standard kernel
subsystem API. Then, dwc2's probe would do something like:

// probe:
pd = power_domain_get(&pdev->dev, "power-domain");
if (IS_ERR(pd))
    return PTR_ERR(pd);
// perhaps in probe, or in PM callbacks, etc.
ret = power_domain_on(pd);

That hypothetical function will go out to DT, find the power-domain
property, look at the DT phandle in the property's value, search for a
power domain provider that was instantiated from the DT node the phandle
points at, and obtain a handle to it.

The benefits of this approach are:

a) Uses a standard API rather than something custom.

b) power_domain_get() will return ERR_PTR(-EPROBE_DEFERRED) if the
"power domain provider (driver) instantiated from the DT node the
phandle points at" has not yet probed. In turn this will prevent DWC2
from probing until the power domain can be turned on. The driver core
will call DWC2's probe over and over until it returns something other
than -EPROBE_DEFERRED (i.e. success, or some other failure).

This should be something more like:

if dt_property_exists("power-domain") {
  // The power_domain_get code I wrote above
}
