Currently resources structure grows with additional parameters required for
each sub-deivce. However each sub-device has some specific resources or
configurations which need to be passed during the initialization.

This change adds per sub-device type structure to simplify the things
and removes the magical void pointer to hw_ops.

I'm not quite sure what the benefit here is, as opposed to simply
extending <name>_device?

Generally, I think the driver state as of today is somewhat backwards..

We define a common set of resources, and then assign them subdev-specific
ops, instead of defining the subdev and consuming clocks/pds/resets
within a subdevice there..
