# The handler in its current form is design to be centeralized, one per system
# and manages all the source clock domains (SrcClockDomain) it is configured to
# handle.  The specific voltage and frequency points are configured per clock
# and voltage domain.

    # regualators takes to migrate from current levels to the new level, is
    # usally variable and hardware implementation dependent. In order to
    # accomodate this effect with ease, we provide a fixed transition latency
    # associated with all migrations. Configure this to maximum latency that
    # the hardware will take to migratate between any two perforamnce levels.
