This patch series is already implementing approach one, as I understand, right? The difference is I moved this API from drivers/pmdomain/imx/scu-pd.c to firmware/imx/misc.c, and exported it there. But you think I should create this new file firmware/imx/power.c and move the API from scu-pd.c to power.c, is my understanding correct? > > Regards, > Peng Best Regards, Hiago.
