This series isn't adding any new OMAP-specific frameworks. The OMAP PM
layer is already in place, and has been there for awhile. OMAP PM is a
layer which can have "plugins" so we can experiment with ways of
handling constraints without changing the driver interface, and this
series is just implementing a new plugin.
Once we are happy with a constraint layer, and can prove it will work,
the plan is to get rid of the (existing) OMAP-specific APIs and propose
a generic interface.
