This is good stuff. Thanks for working on it! Actually the path tagging,
that have been introduced some time ago could be used for supporting the
multiple RSCs. Today we can get the tags from DT, and tag the path with
some DISP_RSC flag (for example) and avoid the qcom,bcm-voter-idx property.

Mike has been also looking into this, so maybe he can share his thoughts.

Retiring the DEFINE_QNODE is good clean-up, but some patches failed to
apply so a re-base would be needed.

Thanks,
