Looks good and applied. BTW if we need more error handling like this, how about
error handling for failing of of_find_device_by_node() something like following?

diff --git a/arch/arm/mach-exynos/pm_domains.c b/arch/arm/mach-exynos/pm_domains.c
index 20f2671..234f967 100644
--- a/arch/arm/mach-exynos/pm_domains.c
+++ b/arch/arm/mach-exynos/pm_domains.c
@@ -116,6 +116,10 @@ static __init int exynos4_pm_init_power_domain(void)
 		struct device *dev;

 		pdev = of_find_device_by_node(np);
+		if (!pdev) {
+			/* error handling */
+		}
+
 		dev = &pdev->dev;

 		pd = kzalloc(sizeof(*pd), GFP_KERNEL);

I mean I'm not sure how many error/exception handling is required...

Note you can see your patch in Samsung tree tonight in my time.

Thanks, Kukjin
