I'm open to suggestions. This series removes all the calls to PC8
get/put, leaving only the "runtime PM" get/put and "power domains"
get/put, so IMHO we already do some cleanup.
Since Imre's recent rework I actually started to like the power
domains, and IMHO a nice approach for the future would be to add power
domains as needed and replace the "runtime PM get/put" calls with
proper power domain get/put calls. On this series there's a patch that
makes us get runtime PM every time we get a power domain, so it should
be easy to just add new domains. And I think it makes sense to also
add power domains for non-display things (as long as we rename
intel_display_power_{get,put} to intel_power_domain_{get,put}.
