On some SoCs, the GIC may be part of a PM Domain (hardware Power and/or Clock Domain). Document the related optional DT properties. Note: As the current GIC driver doesn't support Runtime PM yet, PM Domain constraints must be handled elsewhere in e.g. platform code. Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@xxxxxxxxx> --- To preserve DT stability, we would like to add these properties to the affected shmobile dtsi files.
