With this implementation your approach is: in your genpd_stop_dev() and
genpd_start_dev() you first check for the pm-domain _common_ .start() and
.stop(), and if they exist, the specific ones will not be called. Then in
your sh7372 pm domain implementation you do the domain-common part -
switch the PM clock on or off, and you _again_ check for device-specific
domains, and this time you call both of them.

Do you have specific reasons to think, that calling both of them from
genpd_stop_dev() / genpd_start_dev() might not fit some PM-domain
implementations?

Thanks
