Whoops. Yep items is not needed.

I wasn't sure whether that would've been a good idea, given that there will
be more possible children in the future - as in - more drivers that need the
DVFSRC communication.

But anyway yes, for now, it's just the regulator and interconnect drivers.

I'm not entirely sure that I can find a generic name for this... I wonder if
"remoteproc" could work - as this is a remote processor (a MCU, actually).

To give you context, this doesn't need firmware to be loaded, and does not have
any remoteproc driver.

Because then, I don't think that "performance-controller" would be correct,
even though I have this N.2 choice... ideas?

Cheers,
Angelo
