Thanks for your pointers.

When i boot the kernel, I see that the following domains are currently
on. I see that the following domains are currently on, Linux does not
know about these domains and they are permanently on.

pd-fsys, pd-psgen, pd-peric, pd-wcore

Is there a way of finding out if these can be shut off. i dont think
if clocks for the IP's serviced by these domains and the domain itself
is correctly tied-in in runtime-pm. As these domains are always on.

Also, what kernel are you using?
