Add a property 'assigned-performance-states' which client devices can
use to set this default performance state on their power-domains.

Rajendra, I think this is ready to be re-spinned on top of the latest
changes for genpd that Rafael recently queued [1].

Thanks Ulf, yes, I plan to re-spin these based on the recent discussions,
re-using the existing required-opps bindings soon.
If you would prefer me to do it, then please let me know. Otherwise I
will be awaiting a new version from you.

Kind regards
Uffe
