This driver already using legacy PD API's so thought its supported and 
added power domain device check during powergate_sequence_power_up and 
yes same should apply for powergate_power_off as well. But if legacy PD 
is not supported by T186 then not sure why original driver even using 
these API's.

Preetham/Thierry, Can you please comment ?

But as RPM is not implemented yet for this driver, GENPD will be OFF but 
SATA is not in power-gate by the time kernel starts and functionally works.

But with RPM implementation, I guess we can do proper power gate on/off.
