Merge tag 'pmdomain-v6.6-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ulfh/linux-pm
Pull genpm / pmdomain rename from Ulf Hansson:
"This renames the genpd subsystem to pmdomain.
As discussed on LKML, using 'genpd' as the name of a subsystem isn't
very self-explanatory and the acronym itself that means Generic PM
Domain, is known only by a limited group of people.
The suggestion to improve the situation is to rename the subsystem to
'pmdomain', which there seems to be a good consensus around using.
Ideally it should indicate that its purpose is to manage Power Domains
or 'PM domains' as we often also use within the Linux Kernel
terminology"

pmdomain: Rename the genpd subsystem to pmdomain
It has been pointed out that naming a subsystem "genpd" isn't very
self-explanatory and the acronym itself that means Generic PM Domain, is
known only by a limited group of people.
In a way to improve the situation, let's rename the subsystem to pmdomain,
which ideally should indicate that this is about so called Power Domains or
"PM domains" as we often also use within the Linux Kernel terminology.
