In general I think you can work a bit on the changelog, for example
split it into a few sections to make it more readable.

I would like it to state clearly what constraint we have to be able to
remove a PM domain. More precisely, the device structure is needed, no
of genpd provider etc. Maybe also "linked to another domain" can be
rephrased to tell about both masters and subdomains.

Finally, perhaps change terminology for the "power-domain" to "PM
domain" as I think that's more widely used.

This can deadlock as the work function tries to lock the genpd mutex.

I suggest to move this outside of the locking section just before
returning, but of course still only in case of a non-error.

Besides the minor comment above.

1) Have you considered how to protects against a registered
of_genpd_provider for the genpd?

2) Theoretically some could call pm_genpd_add_subdomain() after this
point. I guess we can consider that as an abuse of the API, although
do you think we need to protect that from really happening?
