That seems a little over-restrictive, as it prevents you from building a tegra kernel even if none of the drivers that rely on the pm domains are used, but it would work. I've looked again at how other platforms (on arm32) do it, and a lot of them use "select PM_GENERIC_DOMAINS if PM", so they don't automatically enable PM, but they enable the pmdomain code if PM is already set. No driver really "depends on PM_GENERIC_DOMAINS", so we shouldn't really start that now or we end up with circular dependencies in the long run.
