Add of_genpd_[add|remove]_subdomain_map() helper functions to support
hierarchical PM domains defined by using power-domains-map
property (c.f. nexus node maps in DT spec, section 2.5.1).
This enables PM domain providers with #power-domain-cells > 0 to
establish subdomain relationships via the power-domain-map property,
which was not previously possible.
These new helper functions:
- uses an OF helper to iterate to over entries in power-domain-map
- For each mapped entry: extracts child specifier, resolves parent phandle,
extracts parent specifier args, and establishes subdomain relationship
- Calls genpd_[add|remove]_subdomain() with proper gpd_list_lock mutex protection
Example from k3-am62l.dtsi:
scmi_pds: protocol@11 {
#power-domain-cells = <1>;
power-domain-map = <15 &MAIN_PD>, /* TIMER0 */
<19 &WKUP_PD>; /* WKUP_TIMER0 */
};
MAIN_PD: power-controller-main {
#power-domain-cells = <0>;
};
WKUP_PD: power-controller-main {
#power-domain-cells = <0>;
};
This allows SCMI power domain 15 to become a subdomain of MAIN_PD, and
domain 19 to become a subdomain of WKUP_PD.

One concern I have here is generally *-map is transparent meaning when
you lookup <&scmi_pds 15>, &MAIN_PD is returned as the provider. It's
also possible to have a map point to another map until you get to the
final provider. The only way we have to support both behaviors is the
consumer has to specify (i.e. with of_parse_phandle_with_args_map() vs.
of_parse_phandle_with_args()), but the consumer shouldn't really know
this detail.
Maybe a transparent map of power-domains would never make sense. IDK. If
so, then there's not really any issue since the pmdomain core handles
everyone the same way.

I don't really know enough about potential usage of maps to know if
there's ever a usecase for transparent maps. However, the problem I'm
trying to solve is less about transparent maps, and more about
describing hierarchy in a situation where "leaf" domains of the same
type (e.g. SCMI) can have different parent domains.
When I first proposed this[1], I didn't use a map, but you suggested I
try using a map[2]. So I'm not sure if I misunderstood what you
proposed, or if now that you see it implemented, you're second guessing if
the map is the right approach.
