Not sure what this last sentence has to do with the DT binding. We
generally try to avoid saying 'Linux' or 'driver' in DT binding
documents, because they usually document hardware.

Is that going to work for drivers that want to talk to two or more RSCs?
I suppose that they'll have to hook up into some sort of framework like
clk or regulator and then drivers that want to use two RSCs for those
things would be linked to those sub-device drivers with the normal clk
or regulator bindings?

Could qcom,tcs-config become something more like below?
#qcom,sleep-tcs = <3>;
#qcom,wake-tcs = <3>;
#qcom,active-tcs = <2>;
#qcom,control-tcs = <1>;
I don't really understand the binding design to have many cells with the
*_TCS defines indicating what comes next.
