I wonder we may not need this as it's a non-stop domain just like we did for arm domain, right?

Otherwise, the patch looks fine to me.

Acked-by: Dong Aisheng <aisheng.dong at nxp.com>

No, this domain can be power gated, there is an internal power gate in GPC, just the input
power can NOT be disabled. So there might be some leakage in this domain, but power still
can be saved a lot if internal power gate is off.

Anson.
