Thanks for sharing this.

I prefer this alternative even though it cannot be applied for old DTBs, it
looks to me that is more modular. What do you think?

The only thing is that MSTOP is not really a power off/on switch (if it
would be implemented with generic_pm_domain.power_{on, off}) but is more
like a clock disable/enable functionality (it should not be an issue
though, just saying)... According to manual (I'm referring to Figure 41.4
Block Connection Overview for Module Standby Mode of HW manula of RZ/G3S),
it disables/enables the module's bus clock.

Thank you,
