I had a look at this and to do that we would end up with
of_genpd_del_provider(struct device_node *np, void *data) where the user
should only pass one of the arguments. It seems a bit odd. However,
unless I have forgotten something, I wonder if we should just make
of_genpd_del_provider_by_name() a local function and not export this at
all? It seems more natural for users to delete a provider by the
device_node than by name rather than the data argument.

The only problem I see with making of_genpd_del_provider_by_name() local
is that I need to add a prototype for the function at the top of the
domain.c source file so that it builds because __pm_genpd_remove() is
defined above it. Yes I could move __pm_genpd_remove() to the bottom of
the file but then it is not located next to pm_genpd_init() which seems odd.

Let me know what you think.

Cheers
Jon
