Right, your approach seems to be more error prone. Do you plan to resend 
your
patch with the parent domain phandle renamed to generic 'power-domains' 
property,
like Geert suggested?

I would like to send Exynos4 HDMI patches based on top of your work and 
have them
finally merged (they are waiting since v3.17...)

Best regards
