As discussed, using "perf" as a generic name for a performance domain
for CPUs makes perfect sense to me. However, we need to update the DT
doc bindings for this too. At least we should update
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/cpufreq/qcom-cpufreq-nvmem.yaml as a
part of $subject series.

At a later step, we should have a look at updating the description for
the power-domain-names in the common
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/cpus.yaml, I think.
