A SoC can be differently structured depending on the platform and the
kernel can not be aware of all the combinations, as well as the
specific tweaks for a particular board.

The creation of the hierarchy must be delegated to userspace.

These changes provide a registering mechanism where the different
subsystems will initialize their dtpm backends and register with a
name the dtpm node in a list.

The next changes will provide an userspace interface to create
hierachically the different nodes. Those will be created by name and
found via the list filled by the different subsystem.

If a specified name is not found in the list, it is assumed to be a
virtual node which will have children and the default is to allocate
such node.

When the node register in the list, the function will be dtpm_register
where the previous semantic was to create the node. Thus, the
functions are renamed to reflect their purpose.
