You just said no clocks are exposed to the OS.

mixed tab and spaces.
Can't I just go read the actual .dts files if I want to see
*everything*? Examples should generally be just what the schema covers.

I don't understand why you have clocks, power-domains and OPP?
Certainly that's conceivable, but not with how you're abusing
power-domains for performance points and you said clocks are not exposed
to the OS.
