I do not agree with the way you described the system.
Here is how I see it. DT must model HW, and in HW your cpus will be part
of a power domain(s) that of course can be hierarchical. Every cpus has a
phandle to the power domain it belongs into, and to group them as "cluster"
you should follow the power domains hierarchy (ie if you have a cluster
power domain, it will contain the core power domains, through the
hierarchy it is easy to detect what cpus are part of the cluster power
domain by detecting which cpus are part of its children). It is much
simpler than the current solution I think, you get rid of cpu-map
dependency (honestly it is a bit weird what you did, with cpu-map
containing a cluster phandle to a power domain and cpu phandles to
cpu nodes, and the DT bindings you posted does not seem to match your
dts).
For PSCI, nothing prevents you from defining the same bindings except
that the power domain(s) is not explicitly controlled by the OS, still,
the DT would always describe the HW and you can use it to detect the
power domain topology and which cpus are part of a given power domain.
Please let me know what you think, thanks.
