They have different SW arch design on low power operation: PPC RCPM
driver has taken care of most things of suspend enter & exit. And LS RCPM driver
will only handle wakeup source configure and left rest work to system firmware
to do. So you might be aware that LS RCPM will only get call whenever plat_pm
driver API is called rather than system suspend begin where.

Because we'd like to decouple RCPM driver and its user.
Benefit is that will allow user doesn't have to know who will serve it for some PM
features (such as wake up source control), and provide some kind of flexibility when
either RCMP or user driver evolve in the future. So I add a plat_pm driver to prevent
wake up IP knowing any information of RCPM.

Ran
