[PATCH] power-domain: fix hang in endless loop on i.MX8

Currently when booting the kernel on i.MX8 U-Boot hangs in an
endless loop when switching off dma, connectivity or lsio power
domains during device removal. It hapens first when removing
gpio0 (gpio at 5d080000) device, here its power domain device
'lsio_gpio0' is obtained for switching off power. Since the
obtained 'lsio_gpio0' device is removed afterwards, its power
domain is also switched off and here the parent power domain
device 'lsio_power_domain' is optained for switching off the
power. Thereafter, when the obtained 'lsio_power_domain' is
removed, device_remove() removes its first child 'lsio_gpio0'.
During this child removal the 'lsio_power_domain' device is
obtained again for switching and when removing it later,
the same child removal is repeated, so we are stuck in an
endless loop. Below is a snippet from dm tree on i.MX8QXP
for better illustration of the DM devices relationship:
Class Index Probed Driver Name
-----------------------------------------------------------
root 0 [ + ] root_driver root_driver
...
simple_bus 0 [ + ] generic_simple_bus |-- imx8qx-pm
power_doma 0 [ + ] imx8_power_domain | |-- lsio_power_domain
power_doma 1 [ + ] imx8_power_domain | | |-- lsio_gpio0
power_doma 2 [ + ] imx8_power_domain | | |-- lsio_gpio1
Do not remove a power domain device if it is a parent of the
currently controlled device.
