Yes I haven't noticed this. Port A and D don't exist on VLV so we don't
need to add them here. It wouldn't be a problem to add them, since we
never ask for these domains on VLV, but I agree that it's confusing to
add them here.

POWER_DOMAIN_PORT_DDI_A_X_LANES and POWER_DOMAIN_PORT_DDI_D_X_LANES is
part of VLV_DISPLAY_POWER_DOMAINS, but again they are only a place
holder there. The display power well is needed for all domains, so I
defined the mapping simply accordingly.

With this patch I thought that we'd keep things as-is for all platforms
except SKL. I imagined that we'd get only the AUX power domains for AUX
functionality (in patch 72/89) and not take the port power domains for
full port functionality. That would provide the extra power saving on
SKL and would keep the other platforms unchanged.

You are right that we probably don't need the TX power wells for AUX
functionality on VLV, but I haven't checked this yet, so this would need
to be done separately as a follow-up.
