[PATCH 4/5] pmdomain: renesas: rcar-gen4-sysc: Don't keep unused PM domains powered-on

The recent changes to genpd makes a genpd OF provider that is powered-on at
initialization to stay powered-on, until the ->sync_state() callback is
invoked for it.
This may not happen at all, if we wait for a consumer device to be probed,
leading to wasting energy. There are ways to enforce the ->sync_state()
callback to be invoked, through sysfs or via the probe-defer-timeout, but
none of them in its current form are a good fit for rcar-gen4-sysc PM
domains.
Let's therefore opt-out from this behaviour of genpd for now, by using the
GENPD_FLAG_NO_STAY_ON.
