"power-domains" is a platform property.

All hardware components need power.
All synchronous hardware components need a clock.
Most hardware components have a reset signal.

Whether these are exposed and can be controlled depends on the platform/SoC.
So documenting them in each and every device binding looks overkill to me.
I think this is something to be addressed by devicetree-specification (which
doesn't handle clocks, power-domains, resets yet).

If you prefer, the property can be removed from the example, though.

Thanks!
