Following the discussion I believe I should take this back. If I
understand correctly, SYSC signal seems best to be modelled as a
reset.

Although, it looks like the USB PM domain provider should rather be
the consumer of that reset, instead of having the reset being consumed
by the consumers of the USB PM domain.

Did that make sense?
