Yes, we will need to coordinate the API change here. I kept the old way
here to not depend on your series for now.

The intention is that if runtime PM is not enabled, the power domain is
still brought up. On a cursory look, it seems like with your patch, this
should indeed work fine without this check if CONFIG_PM is enabled. Now,
that might always be enabled? If so, then everything would be fine; if
this lands after your series, we could even just make the power-domains
prop mandatory and not implement the legacy mode at all. If not, then
AFAIU we must still keep this path.
