This is, unfortunately, not so useful to PXA likely. Although there's
power domain and clock domain concepts in PXA silicon, the power
states of those domains are controlled in a integrated way along with
the power state of the whole chip, perhaps to reduce the software
complexity in software domain management, and mimics the ACPI
concepts to some extent.

I don't want to give an early conclusion, but I may look more into the
usage of these power domains and clock domains ( it's not merely
to setup the PRCM registers correctly, no? )
