This is two patchset:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-arm-kernel/patch/20210604111005.6804-1-peng.fan@xxxxxxxxxxx/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-arm-kernel/cover/20210629072941.7980-1-peng.fan@xxxxxxxxxxx/

I collected in github with a few fixes:
https://github.com/MrVan/linux/tree/linux-next-master-628-blk-ctl-test


In my test, when suspend/resume, I see
pgc_vpu_h1/g1/g2 has status on, but actually they are not on in hardware.
Because vpumix_blk_ctl bus domain is not on, pgc_vpu_h1/g1/g2 runtime
power off will fail.

Thanks,
Peng.
