Yea that was the alternative I was thinking about, I ended up with this 
for some reason. I think personally I liked having them all under the 
same SCM part, because they are nicely grouped then, and well, its the 
same system control part in the chip. We can split it up easily of 
course. Should we have a higher level scm part and then have core_scm 
and wkup_scm under this followed by the sub-functions, or just drop the 
top level scm part completely?

This same question applies to omap4 + omap5 also. In some part for omap3 
also, as it also has pmx_core + pmx_wkup separately, even if they are 
part of the same register space.

Anyway, just a political decision from your side, I am fine either way. :)
