nit: all these nodes should have dashes instead of spaces in the node
names (labels can still have spaces).  AKA:

C0_CPU_SPC: c0-spc {

Sure. I will change this. (However, from device tree specification v0.2, I see that Table 2.1 mentions underscore as valid character for node. Please correct me if I'm missing something)

It seems weird that the idle state with the node name "spc" has the
name "pc" and the idle state with the node name "pc" has the name
"rail pc".  Can this be more consistent or is there a reason why they
need to be mismatched?

Agree. They are confusing. Will change this.


Also: AAHTUFSWDKWTM (acronyms are hard to understand for someone who
doesn't know what they mean).  If you really need to use an the
acronyms "PC" and "SPC" please document them somewhere.  In the very
least the commit message, but having a comment in the file is good
too.  ...or (even better) don't use the acronym and spell out what
you're talking about.  Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't
think it's obvious what the "PC" and "SPC" idle states mean.

Sure. Will change this.


Thanks for feedback Doug.
