This is in downstream tree:
https://github.com/nxp-imx/linux-imx/blob/lf-6.6.y/arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/imx95.dtsi#L2971
https://github.com/nxp-imx/linux-imx/blob/lf-6.6.y/arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/imx95.dtsi#L3043
https://github.com/nxp-imx/linux-imx/blob/lf-6.6.y/arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/imx95.dtsi#L80

we are using "power-domains" property for cpu perf and gpu/vpu perf.

If cpufreq.off=1 is set in bootargs, the vpu/gpu driver will defer probe.

Peng.
