That's > crazy... Its not a lot really. Most of the code is anyways required, the only extra part is the platform specific drivers, which are replacing what the DT would have done. So, it shouldn't be that big of a deal I suppose. > Let's see a working system or two first here please.

So yeah, LCD is a common usecase but the configurations aren't always shared. It may not be an issue with private clock/regulator resources, but with shared ones. Though even with the private resources, we may want the clock/domains/regulators to stay powered on and I assume that the platforms would be doing hacky stuff to get that all working right now. -- viresh
