OK, maybe I'm missing something here.

Do you suggest we have GDSCs that, even though they support HW ctrl,
should not be controllable by the consumer?

Why isn't dev_pm_genpd_set_hwmode good enough? If a consumer doesn't
want to control it then the consumer can just skip calling the mentioned
function.

Or maybe you want this all hidden into the genpd provider?
