The existing psci_power_state, also defined as a per cpu variable,
contains fixed values reflecting the corresponding
arm,psci-suspend-param for the idle state in question.
This isn't sufficient, when using the hierarchical CPU topology in DT
and when OSI mode is supported, because of the way we vote with the
PSCI CPU suspend parameter. Parts of this parameter shall inform about
what state to allow for the cluster, while other parts tells the state
for the CPU.
The new "domain states" per CPU variable, gets dynamically changed
when actively used by following patches that implements the PSCI PM
domain support. Depending on what state the PM domain picks, the genpd
->power_off() callback sets a new "domain states" value, reflecting
the state for the cluster.
Does it makes sense? If you like, I can try to update the changelog to
clarify this?

You are right. This rather belongs to patch 24, as its intent is to
deal with CPU hotplug.

We shouldn't need to explicitly set static variables to zero, as that
should be managed by the compiler.
Let me simply remove the call to psci_set_domain_state(0) and instead
consider it for patch 24.

Thanks for reviewing!
Kind regards
