Yes, it seems since PMIC is kinda "power resource" (don't mix with real power
resource as by ACPI specifications) and that's why they decided to include it
into _DEP. So, it seems a de facto common practice. Thus, it would be nice to
have the above in the commit message in some form. Can you do it?
