Ok, I will update it.

On i.MX8QM/8QXP,  there are independent power domains for DSP core,
DSP's RAM and DSP's MU.
But on i.MX8MP, all these DSP components are in same audio subsystem
There is only one power domain for whole audio subsystem,  when
power on audio subsystem, the DSP's components are powered on also.

So the number of power domain depends on how the DSP component
integrated in SoC.
