I know we discussed this sometime back and so you implemented it this way.

Looking at the implementation of the CPR driver, I now wonder if that was a good
choice. Technically a single domain can manage many devices, a big and a little
CPU for example and then we will have different highest frequencies for both of
them. How will we configure the CPR hardware in such a case ? Isn't the
programming per-device ?
