Indeed.

And why are they even registered as part of cpuidle-psci-domain ?
If they have to be, can be decouple it completely from cpuidle then ?

I thought we had discussed this in past, why are we back to the same
discussion ? I may need to read those again to get the context.

I really don't like this check. Why do we have to keep checking
psci_osi_mode_enabled every single time and that is the reason IIRC
I was against this and just don't add the domains.
