Sure, but the binding for the node still needs to mention that it's 
acceptable for that property to exist (a/k/a that the USB binding 
inherits from or aggregates the power domains binding). Part of 
mentioning that would be a description of what the entries in the 
power-domains property mean (how many are legal, what each index 
represents).
